Milton, no idea how grass can be launched under Windozes. Under linux
you can just launch grass by specifying a location/mapset, e.g.:
grass64 /grassdb/Location/Mapset

That does (I think) away the problem with undetectable locations/mapsets
(like in your case). Can't you just specify another location/mapset
while launching grass from text/gui?
