Comment(by marisn):

 Replying to [comment:12 hellik]:
 Don't forget to put a big, fat warning that WinGRASS works only for users
 with names without non-latin letters. Users migh have no write permission
 outside their home direcories and thus be unable to start GRASS at all.

 As nightly WinGRASS server is down, I can't test SVN, but RC1 is still
 unable to start at all. I can't set GRASSDBASE to anything, as wxgui is
 failing before first screen. Still it's possible, that it's caused by
 #1286
