[GRASS5] New GRASS 5 beta5j - take this for release

[Markus Neteler]

Dear developers,

the "final call for updates" for the next release of
GRASS was successfull, I received numerous bugfixes
yesterday and today! Special thanks to Bill Hughes,
Luca and Angus for their contributions the last days.
Of course thousand thanks to all others spending (but
not wasting!) their time on GRASS development.

Here comes the updated summary. In my opinion we
can/should publish now. Bruce, can you create again
binaries for Solaris2.6 and Solaris7/intel? You should
download again due to numerous updates.
