installing xgrass from binaries

In info.grass.user you write:

  When xgrass starts up, it looks for xgrass-menu in $GISBASE/etc.  If
~/.xgrass-menu exists, it will read that file instead of the system default.

  There is no work around for this, as after the binary distributiion was
compiled, all the *.xclip file names were changed to omit the .xclip.
