Here's a test script that I can run (pretty much copied from the wiki  
http://grass.osgeo.org/wiki/GRASS_and_Shell )  It requires GRASS 6.4.

#!/bin/bash
# Example in bash shell syntax:
# path to GRASS binaries and libraries:
export GISBASE=/usr/local/grass64/grass-6.4.0RC4/
export PATH=$PATH:$GISBASE/bin:$GISBASE/scripts
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$GISBASE/lib
# use process ID (PID) as lock file number:
export GIS_LOCK=$$
# path to GRASS settings file
export GISRC=$HOME/.grassrc6
export GISDBASE=$HOME/geodata/grass
export LOCATION_NAME=testloc
export MAPSET=testmap

####################
# Here is my stuff
# Create new location and mapset in EPSG:2039 CRS
g.proj -c loc=$LOCATION_NAME epsg=2039
g.mapset -c --quiet map=$MAPSET loc=$LOCATION_NAME gisdbase=$GISDBASE
echo "200000,500000" | v.in.ascii out=testpoint fs=, --quiet
v.info testpoint
#######################

#run GRASS' cleanup routine
$GISBASE/etc/clean_temp
# remove session tmp directory:
rm -rf /tmp/grass6-$USER-$GIS_LOCK
