[GRASS-dev] compile directions

[William Kyngesburye]

Hmm, but it doesn't explain the importance of those actions when  
there are compile problems - either when recompiling (or restarting  
an aborted compile) the same source or updated CVS source.  Casual  
users (or casual developers) might not realize that either of these  
could help.

Maybe add a note in section (G) Update of Source Code? (or add it as  
a step in the detail)  Possibly also add a general notes section with  
this hint? (since it could also apply to recompiling/restarting  
compilation)
