Thanks for the hint - the size is shrinked by around 50% to
1.7MB.

If anyone else is interested, I have another script now to
extract babyGRASS from a common code directory into a new
tarball. Also the compile script is improved. Let me know,
then I send it to you.

Currently we cannot login into the Skiff cluster (down), otherwise
inital GRASS/iPAQ binaries would probably already available.
