 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...

 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.

 "Hurry" is a relative word ;-)

 it is possible to link r.mapcalc to the Map calculator GUI in the GUI
 command search.

 No, r.mapcalc would searchable even not included in the menu. The owner of
 this ticket requested to add r.mapcalc to the menu. So I did it.

 r.mapcalc just for a quick wxGUI fix. OTOH, it's the only GUI in trunk,
 and default for 6.4+ IIRC...

 Sorry, as a main contributor to the wxGUI I have little time for testing.
 Moreover trunk is used for development. Broken r.mapcalc has been fixed
 very soon thanks to Glynn. So where is the problem?
