I downloaded the installer from gpsbabel.org (for Tiger and Leopard).

I did not (intentionally) replace your version of gosbabel in the GRASS
binary. My recollection of events is that 1) I upgraded to Lorenazo's GRASS
version 6,3,0 from an older version, 2) I updated to the gpsbabel.org
GPSBabel 1.3.5, and 3) I installed your 6.3.0-1 (Tiger).

I do not have a specific need for GPSBabel 1.3.5. I deleted the installer
receipt for your GRASS version and reinstalled 6.3.0-1 [same problem]. I
then downloaded and installed your 6.3.0-2 [same problem]. I also tried
commenting the gpsbabel path out of my $PATH statement [same problem].

When I view the contents of your GRASS package, the version of gpsbabel has
a modification date of 7/3/08 (8:15p). The version 1.3.5 from gpsbabel.org
has a modification date of 5/4/08.

I only get the dyld library error when I use GPSBabel from within GRASS
without an explicit path; it works fine when I use an explicit path to the
gps.babel.org version or when I use a fresh (non-GRASS) Terminal session.
