Updates

[Richard Wagener]

I'd like to make a suggestion to those of you who are responsible for
putting updates to GRASS 4.0 on the moon.  I just went through the
rather painful exercise of downloading all the *.cpio.Z files from the
moon, and installing those updates.  The problem/nuisance is that the
directory hierarchy is not consistently saved in the cpio files, which
makes it very labor intensive to install updates (one must first
check the cpio table of contents to see where it should be extracted
to).

My suggestion is therefore to uniformly use relative pathnames to the
installed GRASS 4.0 root src directory.  
Similarly for src.{alpha,contrib,related}.
