Comment:

Another bad feature of the default font is that it is ASCII only, so it
fails with many languages and place names.

Produced on Ubuntu 15.10 with:

{{{
unset GRASS_FONT
d.text "Příliš žluťoučký kůň úpěl ďábelské ódy" at=0,50
export GRASS_FONT="serif"
d.text "Příliš žluťoučký kůň úpěl ďábelské ódy" at=0,40
export GRASS_FONT="sans"
d.text "Příliš žluťoučký kůň úpěl ďábelské ódy" at=0,30
