... this can't work because GRASS 5.1 needs the *experimental* version,
not the preX. Means that you have to extract the CVS HEAD version
from GRASS.

Radim, we discussed the "make copymix" target. Will it solve the
problem when I update the grass51-snapshot script to run "make copymix"
to get a 5.1 version with required 5.0 code merged into?

Then: As Bernhard says: Please install the gnu make (and also gnu tar)
on your SUN. Especially the original tar from SUN is worst case stuff.
