Glynn,

Thanks for the suggestion.  I tried doing as you said.  First, I
totally uninstalled the gdal libs (and includes) from my system and
then recompiled with --without-grass.  Then I tried running r.in.gdal
again (without recompiling grass).  It still segfaulted, so I removed
my grass installation and recompiled it (using --with-gdal).  Still
failed.  One thing I noted was that there are two versions of
r.in.gdal--one in /usr/local/grass5/etc/bin/cmd and one in
/usr/local/grass5/bin.  They differ (the one under etc is quite a bit
larger), and the one under bin is the one which gets run under GRASS,
but I tried running the other and it failed too.

I'm starting to see red right now, so I think I'll give it a rest for
today. :-)  I have installed Knoppix on my HD so I can remaster it, so
tomorrow I will try compiling grass and gdal under Knoppix.  That's a
brand spankin' knew development environment, so there's no possibility
that there are any old libs lying around etc.  If that doesn't work,
I'll really be lost....something tells me it isn't going to work
either.  If someone can help me make sense of it, I'll run gdb on
r.in.gdal.  I don't know much C/C++, so I'll need some help.

Take care,
Ben
