 Windows XP, SP3

 If I load a vector poly layer into the "Display 1" tab, and then create a
 "New map display", and load another vector poly layer into the "Display 2"
 tab, then I have two maps in the same mapset which can be displayed side-
 by-side.  Well and good...

 If I then save this "dual-display" workspace, exit completely from GRASS,
 and then re-enter, and then try to load this newly-created workspace,
 everything "locks up" -- that is to say:

 (1) No poly layers are displayed in the "Display 1 Map".
 (2) No poly layers are displayed in the "Display 2 Map".
 (3) Display 2 is locked -- I can't click on Display 1 and go back to it.
 (4) A gray window displays the message "Please wait, loading workspace..."
 and remains in view forever.
 (5) I can't exit from GRASS if I select /File/Exit or CTRL-Q.
 (6) I have to terminate the GUI "cmd-window" to get out of GRASS.

 However, if I open this workspace from 6.4.2, then all is well -- both
 maps are displayed side-by-side correctly.  This in spite of the fact that
 the new parameter "name=" was introduced in 6.4.3.

 This is unfortunate, as I was hoping to use 6.4.3 in order to access the
 fixed-up Table Manager -- oh well.....for now I am using both versions
 back-and-forth as a workaround.

 Apologies if this has been reported elsewhere, but I scrounged around in
 the tickets and couldn't find anything close.

 Thanks,
 Ian Hawboldt
