   But these did not display after building.

   Oops! There is GRASS_WXVERSION exported in ~/.bash_profile, but it's a
much earlier version. Exporting the correct version on the command line
allows both 7.2 and 7.3 to load.

   So, why is the source code not picking up the correct version but does
correctly use the environment variable? An answer now is not necessary, but
I'd be curious to learn the answer at some point.

Much appreciated, Anna,
