GISGEN problems

[James Darrell McCauley]

Your problem originates in /tools1/grass4.1/src/libes/gis/Gmakefile or
/tools1/grass4.1/src/libes/gis/dalloc.c. It looks as though
/tools1/grass4.1/src/libes/gis/ialloc.c has been cat'ed onto dalloc.c
(thus some symbols are duplicated in libgis.a).

The quick fixed would be to remove line 88 from the
Gmakefile(	ialloc.o\), remove the library, and re-run gmake4.1 in
this directory.

Apparently Sun's 'ld' never complained of this - this is
the first time that I've seen this problem. Perhaps the
integer allocation routines will be deleted from dalloc.c
in a later release (I've cc'ed Olga).
