One Mac issue I need to mention. In the current cvs version (on 10.4) GRASS help no longer is listed in my Help Library, although the GRASS addons help IS listed. It's not a huge issue as help comes up OK from within GRASS, but
it was handy having it in the library listing too.

The install puts a symlink in /Library/Documentation/Help. If you move or rename the GRASS app after install, this will break, but as you found g.manual still knows where the files are.

One idea that's been pushed to the back of my brain is to install the actual help files in the Documentation folder. But this would complicate g.manual and GUI help references, and the bindist installer package setup.

More info, I forgot: the GUI splash displays just before this error.

Definitely something wrong in TclTk 8.5.  The GUI runs with 8.4
(32bits).

The reason I tried 8.5 is that 8.4 does not build 64bits on OSX
(configure actually removes any 64bit flags you try to add).  I
suppose the GUI itself doesn't need to run in 64bits, as long as the
modules are 64bits they will run as such.
