William, I thought that the cvs version of init.sh was the one to use now. Please go ahead and make the one further change. We should get rid of the init.sh in the svn repository and instructions that say to use it. If you take care of init.sh in the cvs, I'll take care of the svn version. Thanks for noticing this.
I started messing around with a python replacement for init.sh, just to see what is needed. It is going pretty well, but tedious. Once done (and probably won't work right off) it could be a good opportunity to clean up the start up script for GRASS. Thinking ahead to a time when the same script can start GRASS on all platforms.
