I'm recompiling GRASS binaries and found that GRASS 6 is broken on the Mac.
This is true for the current svn version I just updated and for the version I
compiled 28 June--both release branch and dev branch. I updated all frameworks
today, but I don't know if I tested the 28 June version of GRASS 6 after I
compiled it. So I don't know if it is in the updated frameworks (updated on 29
June) or in the GRASS code. GRASS 7 works fine. When I try to launch GRASS 6, I
get the following error after selecting a mapset and clicking 'start grass'.

I have not changed my python or wxpython installation since the last time I had
a working GRASS 6 (earlier in June).
