grass-4.2 distribution & subdirectory src.related

I have two questions about grass4.2:

Q1 - What are the diffs between version of 3 December 1997 and the new
     version of 2 January from Baylor University?

Q2 - Why is not there the subdirectory src.related ?

Thanks in advance!
ciao marco.

Hello everyone,

When I compiled grass4.2.1(source code from:
http://www.laum.uni-hannover.de/iln/grass/grass42) on SGI irix6.2, I got
the following error message:

GISGEN: src/imagery/i.points - Thu Mar 19 11:49:20 EST 1998

Similar errors also occurred in i.ortho.photo and i.vpoints.
I appreciate your help.

One way to solve this error is to declare the screen function before the
function that calls screen like so.

static int screen();

static
get_point2 (east, north)
    double *east, *north;
{
  ...
}

Even though it is declared inside get_point2(). There are other ways, but this
one worked for me.
