Both I could manage easily by modifying
src/CMD/generic/GISGEN.sh

Now "error.log" is created locally, containing such messages:

Compilation error at STEP: src/raster/r.cost (ignored)
Compilation error at STEP: src/raster/r.sss (ignored)

(Note: the r.cost error is a fake, no need to become nervous)

This means we can keep the full
src/CMD/lists/GRASS
list. The user could compile even if having only a sub-set of
modules (in case GRASS will be shipped in packages).

So: Shall I apply this patch?

Best wishes

 Markus
