>From an earlier message I recall you don't have OGR installed (that
highlighted a bug in g.proj). So, your GDAL must not have the OGR
part compiled. What does 'gdal-config --ogr-enabled' say? Or perhaps GRASS
is finding the wrong gdal-config? Try giving the exact path to it as the
argument to --with-gdal, e.g. --with-gdal=/usr/local/bin/gdal-config

If you want to force building it just cd to the vector/v.in.ogr directory
and run make from there.
