Yes, it is an EXACT copy/paste from the terminal output.
The only "unable to open panel" I could find was in
display/drivers/XDRIVER/XDRIVER24/Panel.c, but that is always "unable to open
panel file".

After running g.tempfile pid=$$ I get:
/home/grassdata/caves92/PERMANENT/.tmp/localhost/3219.0
Is that what it should be?
Yes, I wanted to check if your temporary directory was writeable.
Seems to be ok.
Do you see the same problem if you try from a newly created location & mapset?

Forgive me Hamish, you are right. It should be "unable to open panel file: No such file or directory" like you say.
My finger had to slip when coping/pasting then.

After running g.tempfile pid=$$ I get:
/home/grassdata/caves92/PERMANENT/.tmp/localhost/3219.0
Is that what it should be?
Yes, I wanted to check if your temporary directory was writeable.

Yes - but only if creating a new location from EPSG code! And this way I found the reson that d.barscale doesn't work: the PROJ_INFO file syntax is different when a location is set up via the Grass interface and when automatically generated from EPSG code. See this:
Via Grass set up:
unit: meter
units: meters
meters: 1.0
Automatic, from EPSG 2180:
unit: metre
units: metres
meter: 1
After replacing the automatic one with the Grass one d.barscale works fine.
Could there be any more commands which don't like the EPSG-generated PROJ_INFO files?
