Ah, I see. g.proj is missing an update for the WIND3 integrated.
Fixed in CVS.

Now you can show your bunch of ArcView addicts the bug fix response time...

Reported: Fri Jan 21 2005 00:31:35
Fixed:    Fri Jan 21 2005 11:51:45 CET

Time difference: around 11h including the night.

It is available in CVS, will appear in the next Saturday's CVS snapshots and
of course in 6.0.0beta2.

Have fun, thanks for reporting
