[GRASS-dev] [bug #5098] (grass) gis.m; tcltk error when zooming to map with name which exists in more than one mapset

[Michael Barton]

Maceij has reported this too.

I'm trying to do a bunch of comprehensive bug fixes (they never seem to end)
to gism. I think I've fixed this one.

I was finally able to reproduce a strange one that he also reported about
zooming when 2 or more map display are visible. Reproducing it on my Mac was
difficult, but fixing this was much harder. But I think I got it.

This has involved changing most of the many global variables floating around
to ones tied to local name spaces, and replacing other variables with arrays
indexed by active display monitor.

I hope to get this committed either tomorrow or Wednesday.

Hopefully, this will make the whole system more robust.
