[GRASS-dev] problems with mkftcap

[Michael Barton]

In fact, I was too hasty in my optimistic report. mkftcap works, but it
doesn't put the output into my $GISBASE/etc/freetypecap file. It just
outputs it to the terminal. I can manually deal with this

mkftcap>$GISBASE/etc/freetypecap

but something is not working right. Maybe need to recompile.
