I have updated to 4.8.1 on my test-server and the same thing is still
persistent.

For clearance I have posted my layer definition. I have also checked
that the correct srid is given in the geometry_columns for the specific
layer:
MAP
...
  Name "GRASS_USERMAP"
  EXTENT -180 -90 180 90
  UNITS DD
  PROJECTION
     "init=epsg:4326"
  END

Diggin in the code will not help much since I am no programmer, just
user.

Thank you for your help.
