I can confirm that the 6.4 install doesn't actually delete
GRASS-6.3.app, it just "empties" it out. So that it is now 6.5 meg,
while it used to be much larger (6.4 is 74 meg). And when I double
click on 6.3 I get a error in my log:
posix_spawnp("/Applications/GRASS-6.3.app/Contents/MacOS/GRASS", ...):
No such file or directory
So it looks like the 6.4 installer deletes most, but not all, of the
stuff that was in 6.3.
