Sorry for the vague nature of this comment. I was implying that since SOLPOS 
is better than the algorithm in r.sun, and seems to take longer (longer 
computation time == more accurate) then r.sun is using a simpler less 
accurate algorithm. This looks to not be the case, and I should have been 
clearer in my question/ comment.
