it would be probably better to replace G_find_raster() by G_find_raster2() in G7. Any objections? Current situation is apparently confusing for many of GRASS programmers. Keeping backward compatibility between G6 (where G_find_<maptype>2() have been introduced) and G7 is not necessary in this case I would say.
