Apparently there was a change in the db driver that has the effect of 
not allowing whitespace between the different connection parameters.

GRASS64:

db.connect driver=pg database="dbname=nc_grass,host=localhost" db.tables -p
=> OK

db.connect driver=pg database="dbname=nc_grass, host=localhost"
db.tables -p
=> OK

trunk (7.1):

db.connect driver=pg database="dbname=nc_grass,host=localhost"
db.tables -p
=> OK

db.connect driver=pg database="dbname=nc_grass, host=localhost"
db.tables -p
=>Error

I don't know if this was intended. Please file a bug report.
