[1] Custom Query – GRASS GIS

#595: WinGRASS g.version -c fails (can not release without viewable GPL)
     also #588: wxGUI help->About license view broken

#608: lat/lon support in gis.m is badly broken if you zoom out past 90N/S.

bug #?: launching full tcl/tk NVIZ from wxGUI File-> menu is a no-op on
       WinGrass. This is a flagship module, we shouldn't ship without
       it working. (path/basename error?; also from Cmd> prompt)

#498: r.sun2 lat/lon checks (non-critical but I'm reviewing the patch now)

should be easy to fix, but wingrass devs are few:
- a few lingering path name quoting issues
#234/#580, #629|comment:5

#234/#580 might be fixed with r37872.

From my side, I have no time and motivation to make wxGUI vector
digitizer working on MS Windows - so I am leaving this issue to
someone else for now - at least to write tutorial how to compile Python
extension in situation when GRASS is built using MinGW and the rest
(Python, wxPython) using MS VS.

The OSGeo4W installer does this; links for anyone interested:

There is still the problem with v.delauney on the Mac #660. I'll try to compile 32 bit today to see if it goes away.
