Glynn,

I just located and fixed one of the problems with r.in.bin. It was not
reading the rows and cols supplied by the user as reported by Jan. 

I was not sure if you had applied a fix to the CVS for the other (?)
reported problem(s). I will hold off applying the above fix until we
have hopefully picked up (and fixed) all problems.
