Hello Nancy,

I have put the Update5 package on moon last night.  Look under the
/grass/grass4.1/update_packages directory.  Today I hope to package
up Update5 applied Grass and place the source and Sun4 binary on
moon under the /grass/grass4.1/release directory.

I have tested the compiled code under Solaris2.4 and using fifos rather
than message queues.  The machine was the Sun Voyager, a microSPARCII
chip, 50mHz, 32 MB RAM, portable workstation.  Grass ran very fast and
displayed maps to the graphics monitor very quickly.
