 Dear Martin,
 many thanks for all of your effort.

 I am not arguing about the sense of the changes. As i stated before i am
 fine with them. I simply have a problem how these changes are applied. We
 have a wonderful test suite that will help you to avoid breaking parts of
 GRASS. We should make use of it to avoid such a discussion.
