[GRASS-user] Problem grass-6.4.0 error setting region: child process exited abnormally

[Elvis Dowson]

Hi,
          I'm getting some errors when trying to use some basic  
grass-6.4.0 operations.

I click on Add a Raster Layer and select the aspect file from the  
spearfish60 permanent dataset.

After that I click on Display Active Layers and I get an error message  
"Error setting region: child process exited abnormally"

After that I get an error message saying" Error can't read  
parts(projection)": no such variable

If I click on the details button, I get the following error information:

can't read "parts(projection)": no such variable
can't read "parts(projection)": no such variable
     while executing
"regexp -nocase {^([0-9]+)} $parts(projection) trash parts(projection)"
     (procedure "MapCanvas::runprograms" line 46)
     invoked from within
"MapCanvas::runprograms $mon [expr {$mymodified != 0}]"
     (procedure "MapCanvas::drawmap" line 38)
     invoked from within
"MapCanvas::drawmap $mon"
     (procedure "MapCanvas::display_server" line 9)
     invoked from within
"MapCanvas::display_server"
     ("after" script)


What could be causing it?  I just built grass-6.4.0 on Mac OS X 10.5.5.

Best regards,
