This is a side effect of redefining map layout in TeX directly. There
is a work-around, though, if you add other \legendbox to insert the
image, like
\legendbox{0}{100}{NW}{\loadpicture{/absolute/path/to/file}}

[Therion] Customising map layout
Iâve tried out the following example from thbook adding this to my layout
code tex-map
\def\maplayout{
\legendbox{0}{100}{NW}{\northarrow}
}
endcode
This works fine for \northarrow and \scalebar but when I tried it with
\cavename or \comment I get the following error

[Therion] Customising map layout
Try \the\cavename instead of \cavename (it is a TeX way to display
value of token register).
