Hi,
if I run grass5 tcltk startup interface in mapset frame are displayed
only directories owned by ??? (owner of some startup script probably).
It is because in tcltkgrass/script/gis_set.tcl is used condition
[file owned $i] which should be true if file is owned by current user
but I can see only dirs owned by user who compiled grass.
(suid somewhere?)
I think we could remove that condition.
(It should be test if user can write to selected mapset,
but we can postpone ..... grass51)

This is very strange. The only directories that should appear are those
owned by the user. According to Tcl/tk manuals, it has nothing to do
with the owner of the startup script. And I do not know of any suid in
the initialization. Did this behaviour just start recently, or was this
happening all along?

This should be implemented in conjunction with either Roger Miller's
changes to allow group access to mapsets, or even better, file level
locking - use UNIX permissions to decide who can read/write what, and
lock map files when opened.
