 initialization, also present in the original (pre-MFD and pre-faster-
 search) version.

 Hi,

 could you isolate that bugfix, i.e. what needs to be backported to 6.4?

 nice.

 ok, if there is a major change like that in grass7 it is worth
 noting clearly in the help page. also the help page needs updating
 to reflect that it is no longer "much slower than r.terraflow" and
 the parts referring to the A^T search algorithm, and any references.
 I would guess to leave Ehlschlaeger's paper there for the
 r.watershed ref even if the search algorithm is replaced.
