problem re-est. links

Hi folks:

     Yesterday my GRASS4.1 system got corrupted and I restored the entire
GRASS home directory from a tape backup (binaries and all). Now I am having
trouble re-establishing the system. I have used the original setup.script.
The links between the binaries and front.end seem to work, and I seem to have
access to the graphics drivers, but I get the following message when I hit
ESC to continue at the opening GRASS screen (before the GRASS > prompt:

********************************************************************************
Sorry, <MONITOR> is not a valid parameter

Usage:
g.gisenv [-lLprs] [start=name] [stop=name] [select=name]
   [unlock=name]

Flags:
  -l List all monitors
  -L List all monitors (with current status)
  -p Print name of currently selected monitor
  -r Release currently selected monitor
  -s Do not automatically select when starting

Parameters:
   start Name of graphics monitor to start
    stop Name of graphics monitor to stop
  select Name of graphics monitor to select
  unlock Name of graphics monitor to unlock

OPTION: Name of graphics monitor to start
     key: start
required: NO
enter option >
********************************************************************************

It seems that the initial call to g.gisenv in the GIS.sh startup script is
unhappy. Can anyone suggest what I might need to do to fix this?

       Thanks for any help you can provide.
