Here is what's in SVN:
http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/branches/develbranch_6/include/Make/Shlib.make
http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/branches/develbranch_6/lib/gis/Makefile

Ha!
No trace of dllmain.c in
http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/browser/grass/branches/develbranch_6/lib/gis/

I'm confused. Perhaps our radio-bridge based internet connection in the
office failed silently. Submitted (again) in r36196 for devel_branch6.

In 6.4.0svn it was already present.

Please give the compilation another try.
Colin, too...

The entire change is yet missing in grass 7 as I don't know
how to modify the Makefiles appropriately. The patches of
the trac ticket won't work.
