No, because old tiles of uninstalled versions doesn't refer to anything. Tiles are not tied to a particular version of Vassal.

The tile cache is in ~/Library/Application Support/VASSAL/tiles on MacOS. If all you're trying to do is clear the tile cache, you don't need to know where it is. You can clear the tile cache from the Tools > Clear Tile Cache menu item in the Module Manager.

It's been nearly four years since this issue was first raised, and apparently nothing has been done. When will this site adopt HTTPS?

VSQL would be another.

This might be the case at present, but we intentionally don't test for it and advise that nobody rely on it. There could be a point in the future where Vassal 3.x will no longer enter game rooms started with 3.y when x != y, as that would definitively head off such problems.

The only support there is for versions of Vassal prior to the current version is the suggestion to upgrade to the current version. If you want to use a version containing bugs we've already fixed, that's up to you, but it's not what I recommend.

By "minimal module", I mean a module that contains as little as possible while still exhibiting the problem. E.g., can you create an empty module, add a few pieces, and still reproduce these problems?

Hmm. What about reproducing the problems starting from minimal modules?

What I recommend doing next is: Determine what causes the difference between the German, Russian, and Hungarian units and other units for the first problem. I'd try removing traits from a German unit, say, until it starts acting like the other units. See if you can reproduce either problem with...

That is absolutely not what I was suggesting. The thing which you MUST NOT do is put user data---the VASL module, the boards directory, saved games, logs---in C:\Program Files. What we recommend that you do is install Vassal to C:\Program Files and put user data in your user directory...

The recommended location for installing Vassal on Windows is the default one: C:\Program Files. I wouldn't put it elsewhere without a reason compelling that. The recommended location for modules, saved games, and other data is in your user directory. Neither of these are required, but it's a...

You could post the exact wording of the error message, or a screenshot showing it, and the path to which you have your Board Directory set (see File > Preferences > VASL). It's hard to troubleshoot further without that information.
