[GRASS-dev] nviz broken for Mac OS X 10.5.6 and TclTk 8.5 aqua

[William Kyngesburye]

Yeah, that worries me just a bit.  I'm putting the symlink note in my  
own distribution readme, along with a note of the option of setting  
GRASS_WISH and GRASS_TCLSH.

I need to update the bindist readme to include that note.

I could bring back a default setting in the startup (removed when I  
dropped TclTk X11 bundling).  Since the build system doesn't provide a  
tcltk version variable, I could test for the presence of wish8.5...
