First, it is better to ask this sort of question on the developers'
list: grass-dev at grass.itc.it .

If you want to add new modules, it is easier to build from source, as
the binary packages don't include the Makefile fragments (that should
be changing for future releases).

The easiest way to add a new module is to create a directory for it,
copy the Makefile from a similar module, and add the new directory to
the parent Makefile (e.g. raster/Makefile if you are adding a new
subdirectory to the raster directory).

If you only have a binary package, you can still create new modules
(the binary packages include all of the relevant header files and
libraries), but you'll need to write the Makefile from scratch.
