For example:
G_put_raster_row () -> Rast_put_row ()
G_open_raster_new() -> Rast_open_new ()
G_read_raster_timestamp () -> Rast_read_timestamp ()
etc.
As far as I understand all these functions are historically
called G_something, but IMHO this should be cleaned up
to make the GRASS API more transparent to (new) programmers.
