this issue is still present in GRASS 7.0.1. When non-ascii characters are
in the grass data path, the 'Select source mapset:' dropdown is populated
with empty options. When no non-ascii characters are the path the dropdown
is populated with the expected mapsets.

r65787 ? It adds encoding and decoding to the parse_key_val which is used
in gisenv(). I'm still too confused by encoding handling in Python to be
able to say whether this is the "right" solution to the problem, though.
