just a note regarding this - most hydrologic modeling tools that were 
developed or linked to GRASS
in 90ies and not ported to GRASS6 usually need more than just porting. 
Compared to their current versions
(if they exist) they are very much behind so they also need some serious 
upgrade
(this is true also for the simwe modules).
I have emailed to Fred Ogden who is one of the co-authors of casc2d to 
find out what he thinks should be done
but I don't have an answer yet. The same should probably be done for 
answers, swat, r.water.fea  and others.
Also, there are several efforts in development of new hydrologic modules 
that I know of but I will
leave the announcement to authors when they are ready.
