re. ~/.grassrc6, do not mess with the location of longstanding
support files. 6.x is the **stable** branch which should have
its core firmly in bug-fix-only mode.

trunk, MS Windows, wxGUI: they do not have the many years of
assumptions built upon them, both by us, our users' personal
scripts, and 3rd parties; so do what improvements you like.
(.grass6/wx etc, and .grass7/all sounds good to me)


thanks,
Hamish
