Where did you read that?! This might be an outdated info that needs
correction. Please let us now!

Best way to go:

0. Uninstall Gdal 1.2.6 and Grass 6.1.

1. Install GDAL 1.3.1 (eg. from Debian GIS:
http://pkg-grass.alioth.debian.org/debian-gis/pool/g/gdal)

2. Build Grass 6.1 (you already know how to :)).

3. Don't rebuild GDAL, use gdal-grass plugin instead (really
straightforward, 
http://grass.gdf-hannover.de/wiki/Compile_and_install_GRASS_and_QGIS_with_GDAL/OGR_Plugin)

4. Enjoy :).
