Firstly, because I don't want to spend several hours by compiling OE. 
Secondly, because this is only example of problems with GRASS compilation and 
I want to learn how to solve it. 

For example, there is similar error in compilation of GRASS itself:

NOTE:

The problem is caused because there are several local macros defined in 
aclocal.m4 which is overwritten by om-config. I've moved them to m4/local.m4 
file but it is not included in autoreconf execution even if I use 
EXTRA_AUTORECONF="-I/home/blackhex/Projekty/MokoGRASS/grass/m4" om-conf grass 
command and AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4]) in configure.in.

If you think that these kind of errors will not occur with OE, I'll try to go 
this way... ?
