Is that not a good solution to your problems then? The location creation through the start-up GUI was all very experimental prior to 6.3; a lot of things have been cleaned up since 6.2 - and the changes were too complicated and extensive to be easily backported.
My questions is: What is the difference when creating a new LOCATION in text mode from trying to do so with the GUI (EPSG's or Georef.file)?
The GUI uses g.proj in the background; "Create using projection values" uses $ETC/set_data. They both create new locations but do so in completely different ways and the locations they create are slightly different in several subtle ways - hopefully these days we've ironed out most of the incompatibilities between them. But note that you can also run g.proj from the command-line if you want - check the man page for details; it has lots of options for creating new locations and the GUI is just another layer on top of this.
