[GRASS-dev] check on GRASS revision number

[Michael Barton]

For any version of GRASS for which there is any reasonable development, all binary extensions will be out of date as soon as the first update is made. So they all will need to be recompiled. Why do we need to do this? Most will work fine without recompiling.

Today yes, due to an API change in libgis.

Why?

As soon as G7 is stable these changes will unlikely or at least only very rarely occur.
