Sorry: revised procedure (I just tested it on a "fresh" machine):

HOWTO compile OGR/GRASS/GRASS-plugin:
  1. compile GDAL/OGR without GRASS support (see ./conf_gdal.sh )
  2. compile GRASS itself (see ./conf_grass61_linux.sh )
  3. link GRASS libs into /usr/local/lib/
  4. run 'ldconfig' (as root)
  5. run this script to configure/compile/install OGR/GRASS plugin
     (may require root permissions)

Frank, we are looking forward to the unification of the GRASS drivers :-)
