grass421_on_linux:compilation errors.

[Malcolm Williamson]

Skip,
I obviously can't answer for Dr. Lobo, but I can for myself and probably 
many other long-time GRASS users. One of the great strengths of GRASS has 
been the ability to utilize contributed programs, which are typically 
distributed solely as source code. Although Markus et al have done a 
fantastic job at gathering and compiling the latest contributed programs, 
it is nice not to have to rely upon someone else's priorities and 
schedule. Also, you don't have to be a C programming wizard to make minor 
modifications and customizations to GRASS programs. In either case, it is 
a fine thing to have the ability to compile. My $.02.
