I recompiled GRASS again - same error message.

just to be sure that I did not introduce a stupid mistake:

rm -rf
/usr/local/grass6-cvs-...
/usr/local/bin/grass6...

rm -rf
my_grass_cvs_folder

then:
export CVSROOT=:ext:martin at grasscvs:/grassrepository
export CVS_RSH=ssh
cvs -z3 co grass6
cd grass6
./configure --with-tcltk-includes=/usr/include/tcl8.4 --with-postgres-includes=/usr/include/postgresql   --with-gdal=/usr/local/bin/gdal-config   --enable-largefile 
make
sudo make install

grass63

g.copy rast=old,new

if not GRASS related, can debian unstable cause this error?
