Comment:

 I apologize for reporting this trivial error.  I found that the root of
 this problem was that my [[BR]]
 GIS data directory had been set to 'c:\grass\GIS Database'.  This is the
 default value[[BR]]
 when winGRASS is installed using the experimental installer program.  The
 space in the[[BR]]
 directory name was causing problems inside the Python code.  When I
 changed the GISDBASE[[BR]]
 variable to a path without spaces, the wxPython GUI launched correctly.
