maybe Helena and Laura's comments help:

 http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gis.grass.devel/1442

searching the mailing lists turns up some more, such as:

garbage in, garbage out of course. Make sure all your inputs are healthy
before undertaking the next step... I'm not familiar with your dataset
so no idea how good/bad r.thin did, or even what you are thinning.
(stream network?)

Let GRASS 6.2.2's r.watershed run for a week or three until you get a
result. Try without the -m flag first, only use that if you get out-of-
memory errors. Eventaully it gets done, it just takes a while.

tip - set shell priority low before starting a long-running process:
GRASS> renice +19 -p $$
GRASS> r.watershed ...

You can make grass shell always start up at a lower priority by adding
the renice to ~/.grass.bashrc
