[GRASS-dev] What is a binary executable doing in CVS?

Why are we including what appears to be a MacOSX binary for GNU make
in CVS (gem/skeleton/macosx/bin/make)? We wouldn't normally store
binary executables in CVS.

Apart from anything else, this obligates us to either host the source
code for that version of make, or offer to provide the source code
upon request for three years from the time that the binary is no
longer available via CVS. Do we even know which version of the source
code we need to supply?
