Thanks for this one too.  I guess we can't opt for a "sane" default NULL
compression. Can we? For future versions?

There are "out-of-date" versions of GRASS, in software repositories.  For example,
https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/g/, see for gdal and
grass.  So, this complicates thigns (compatibility).
