 Still fails with today's nightly. To test, please, create a new user
 account (i.e. "test"). If it's working on Your system, my guess would be -
 somebody "forgot" that GRASS can be started also for first time with MSYS?

 > Does "GRASS 6.4.SVN" open the same location correctly?
 There's no location at all! It's a fresh start without GISDBASE, LOCATION
 etc. set. There's no way how to set LOCATION before GRASS startup screen
 (wx, tcl, text) comes up (for ordinary users).

 WinGRASS-6.4.SVN-r45829-1-Setup
