Hello all,

This bug affects several commands including r.in.poly,r.digit,r.flow,..

The bug is in ~src/libes/gis/set_window.c between lines 97-119.
My quick fix was to remove these lines and re-compile gis lib and also
all affected commands. Of course, it would be better to fix it in a more
convenient way, however I have no time to figure out what is wrong there...
