Nice idea, but life is too short.  I download GRASS and managed to get all the 
necessary support stuff also installed so that 'configure' and 'make' managed 
to get though the installation process.  While trying to do a quick test with 
the included demo stuff and good 'ol Spearfishi, I ran into a hassle.  Upon 
opening the files I got a 500ms flash on the screen of some map like image 
and then GRASS TK screen disappeared and a diagnostic listing came up on the 
session window listing a bunch of "faillures" seeming to point to some 
librarie(s).

Well ... for something that took about 8 minutes to compile on a 3GHz machine 
I have a problem that I am not even dreaming about trying to solve.

I guess I will dust off MAPGEN and see if I can bring it up.

PS: thanks to Frank for responding to the gdal hassle.
