I am trying to import vmap0 files into GRASS using the very useful  
article by Marks Neteler in GRASS Newsletter 3, with Lorenzo  
Moretti's binaries on Mac OSX (Grass 6.1cvs of Nov. 22). I removed  
all the trailing periods, lowercased the filenames, but I can't get  
anything to read the files. When I run ogrinfo
[Nick:local/grasslib/bin] nick% ./ogrinfo -ro -summary gltp:/vrf/ 
Users/nick/v0eur/vmaplv0/eurnasia 'polbnda at bnd(*)_area'
FAILURE:
Unable to open datasource `gltp:/vrf/Users/nick/v0eur/vmaplv0/ 
eurnasia' with the following drivers.
   -> ESRI Shapefile
   -> UK .NTF
   -> SDTS
   -> TIGER
   -> S57
   -> MapInfo File
   -> DGN
   -> VRT
   -> AVCBin
   -> REC
   -> Memory
   -> CSV
   -> GML
   -> ODBC
   -> OGDI
   -> PostgreSQL
   -> MySQL
Nothing I've tried seems to work. Has anybody had success with this?  
Is it possible that there is something wrong with the binaries?  
ogrinfo works fine with shapefiles, but doesn't seem to like VPFs.
Thanks for any help you can offer,
Nick Cahill
