Thanks to Glynn, we now have a new GRASS 6.2.1 winGRASS/Cygwin binary
packages available at
http://grass.itc.it/grass62/binary/mswindows/
(on the mirrors the next 1-2 days)

For now I have linked to Huidae's install instructions. If anyone
provides me with new install docs, I can upload them to the server, too.
