[GRASS5] compiling beta10 on IRIX and CYGWIN/WIN32

[John Huddleston]

No Markus,  you do not have to change 60% of the Gmakefiles.
if beta10 comes from the cvs.  

I modified all the files to be $(LIBS) $(XDRLIB) $(MATHLIB)
when I first started.   It is usually new files that potentially may
have incorrect order.  The rules depends on which LIBS are
included.  Some require XDRLIB and some don't.
