 diff is against revision 42182, not revision 42210. In r42210, a lot of
 changes have been made to the GUI and the module, some of the changes have
 been changed again...

 There were at least 4 commits related to this ticket, these I mean. IMHO,
 the first two were done a bit in a hurry, and I want to ask for some more
 care and testing before committing (nice word in this context), granted
 that some bugs can always slip through.

 So is there really a need for two GUI interfaces for r.mapcalc? I'm sure
 it is possible to link r.mapcalc to the Map calculator GUI in the GUI
 command search.

 From this point of view, even less reason to modify a core module like
 r.mapcalc just for a quick wxGUI fix. OTOH, it's the only GUI in trunk,
 and default for 6.4+ IIRC...
