To me it seems that GDAL is now (with Martins fixes in place) using a mixture of GRASS 6 and 7 libs. GDAL itself does not complain (if both GRASS versions can be found) but raster2pgsql does (and maybe OGR would as well)...

..to my knowledge the GDAL plugin is nothing else than the source code
extraction from main GDAL into a separate package.

I think that the GDAL-GRASS plugin code should be re-extracted as a package.

yes, please.
