[GRASS-dev] Autoconf 2.13

[Wolf Bergenheim]

Recently at work we also switched to cmake from autotools, and life is 
much simpler now. I would gladly help if we do decide to switch.

A few benefits of cmake include generating native visual studio project 
and build files. Trivial way of generating dll libraries and linking in 
general. The same configuration files work on all platforms.
