 http://grass.osgeo.org/grass64/binary/mswindows/native/WinGRASS-6.4.2RC1-1-Setup.exe
 on a fresh german 64bit-win7-box and on german 32bit-winvista-box, I can't
 reproduce these errors.

 Thanks for testing. The error cannot be reproduced on your computer
 because "system locale" is perhaps set to german. System local can
 be changed from Contro Panel --> Region and Language --> Change system
 locale.
 On Japanese Windows-7 the system locale is set to "Japanese".
 (Japanese/Chinese/Korean are use double byte encoding, unlike English,
 German etc.). d.rast wxGUI works if I set the "system locale" to English
 or German (I tried with German too).

 The problem that I am reporting is peculiar to languages using double-byte
 characters (Chinese, Japanese, Korean). You should be able to reproduce
 the error by setting the Change system locale to Japanese,
