Shell variables only work from the shell, so if you get ps.map instructions from an input file you need the full path. On the other hand if you do: ps.map out=test.ps EOF ... pattern $GISBASE/etc/paint/... ... EOF shell variables are ok get expanded. BUT, this is a PITA for version/machine portability of instruction files so r_vareas.c scans the filename string for $GISBASE and expands it to G_gisbase() if needed. For some reason in yours it gets past that expansion somehow. I'm not sure why but the quick fix is to just spell out the full path to the file and not use the variable.
