Yes, running
url_handler.bat file://c:/GRASS/grass-6.3.cvs/docs/html/d.vect.html
launches my default browser with the d.vect man page.

Concerning the wrong setting for GISRC, this seems to come from the 
following line in etc/Init.bat:

set WINGISRC=%HOME%\.grassrc6

'echo %HOME%' just results in %HOME%. Is HOME a valid Win env variable 
(and what would $HOME actually be in a windows environment) ?
