[GRASS5] v.digit color name mismatch

[John Gillette]

This is good information to know.  I have been looking at vector
processing modules also and have wondered if I was "wasting"
my time by not looking at 5.1.  My concern is that what I do
for 5.0 will change with 5.1.  These comments make it clear to me
that I need to compile 5.1 and start looking at what's different.

In particular, I have been looking in v.digit and v.build at
topology building and checking routines to see how lower level 
routines can be used to build higher level functions.

I'd also like to document what I figure out.  The programming
manual has little information at this level of internals.

It would be good if we can coordinate our work. Or at least share 
what areas we are working in. (I'm thinking specifically
of the vector area.)
