Another problem with vdigit: the C++ wrapper file grass6_wxvdigit_wrap.cpp

during the build process.

Correct or not, I'vee seen it as a convention in many projects to include pre-SWIG'd sources (ie Mapserver, Qgis, GDAL). While developers may be OK with adding SWIG to their toolbox (though I haven't installed it on my new Mac because I don't need it any more), users who build from source may not have SWIG, and may not want to install something that's not used at runtime but only for compilation.
