The --q[uiet] and --v[erbose] flags are implemented by G_parser(), and
aren't present in 6.2.x.

I'm unsure whether to remove the --quiet flags only from the 6.2.x
version of d.slide.show, or also from the 6.3.x version.

IMHO, d.slide.show should simply allow the d.rast/d.vect commands to
operate at the verbosity level set by $GRASS_VERBOSE. If d.slide.show
itself is passed --q or --v, GRASS_VERBOSE will be set accordingly,
and the d.rast/d.vect commands will inherit that setting. Otherwise,
they will inherit any existing setting of $GRASS_VERBOSE.

Forcing the commands to operate quietly regardless of --v or any
$GRASS_VERBOSE setting seems incorrect.
