 > HB: It seems you found a bug: "C:\Program" got sent as the first
 argument, and the second half, "Files\GRASS-64\..." was sent as the second
 argument. Somewhere some path variable is not quoted correctly to protect
 against spaces in pathnames.

 test with the actual WinGrass64-release (installed in c:\Program
 Files\...):

 {{{
 v.in.ogr --verbose dsn=C:\wd\gextension\firestations.shp
 output=testvimport
 Die Projektionsinformationen des Eingabedatensatzes und der aktuellen
 Location scheinen übereinzustimmen.
 Layer: firestations
 Spaltenname wurde geändert: 'cat' -> 'cat_'
 Importiere 71 Objekte der Karte...
 -----------------------------------------------------
 Erstelle Topologie für die Vektorkarte <testvimport>...
 Registriere Primitive...
 71 Primitive registriert
 71 Vertices registriert
 Erzeuge Flächen...
 0 Flächen angelegt
 0 Inseln angelegt
 Füge Inseln hinzu...
 Füge Zentroide hinzu...
 Die Topologie wurde erstellt
 Anzahl der Knoten: 71
 Anzahl der Primitive: 71
 Anzahl der Punkte: 71
 Anzahl der Linien: 0
 Anzahl der Grenzen: 0
 Anzahl der Zentroide: 0
 Anzahl der Flächen: 0
 Anzahl der Inseln: 0
 (Fri Oct 01 20:08:31 2010) Command finished (0 sec)
 }}}

 it works. I would vote for closing the ticket.
