If I understand the situation well, I don't think that any external
library should be distributed with GRASS. Say that somebody
has GDAL 1.9 installed on his system:
/usr/local/lib/libgdal.1.1.so
/usr/local/bin/<gdal programs>
his LD_LIBRARY_PATH is empty and it works well for him, then he installs
GRASS with libgdal.1.1.so from GDAL 1.8.
In GRAS shell, the (old) version of libgdal.1.1.so from GRASS will
be used and all GDAL programs from /usr/local/bin/ will use wrong library
from GRASS.
