Thanks for clarification Markus, and thanks Helmut for similar input.
So, the last problem is that
g.proj -c proj4=-
followed by input to stdin works, but I cannot seem to construct a file
with proj4 parameters that g.proj will accept, even though identical
information entered at stdin works. So, I'm still struggling for the
syntax of aproj4 file I guess.
Thanks all, Dave

Hi Ken, Hi Sajid,
Thanks for the pointers. I think my problem is that grass70 and
g.proj parse the files differently. I.e.,
Here is file teste.prj
PROJCS["Lambert_Conformal_Conic",
GEOGCS["GCS_WGS_1984",
DATUM["D_WGS_1984",
SPHEROID["WGS_1984",6378137,298.257223563]],
PRIMEM["Greenwich",0],
UNIT["Degree",0.017453292519943295]],
PROJECTION["Lambert_Conformal_Conic"],
PARAMETER["standard_parallel_1",40],
PARAMETER["standard_parallel_2",45],
PARAMETER["latitude_of_origin",0],
PARAMETER["central_meridian",-109],
PARAMETER["false_easting",0],
PARAMETER["false_northing",0],
UNIT["Meter",1]]
The following does not work
grass70 -e -c teste.prj teste
Creating new GRASS GIS location/mapset...
ERROR: ERROR 4: `teste.prj' not recognised as a supported
file format.
ERROR: Could not read georeferenced file teste.prj using either OGR nor
GDAL
Yes because it is not a raster or vector file.
However, this does work
grass70 -c teste
g.proj -c wkt=teste.prj
This one is right.
I'm having even worse luck with PROJ4 syntax of files.
AFAIK that's only supported in g.proj.
