hmm?

If you have a tarred source named "grass-6.4.0RC4.tar.gz" after
unpacking it you get a directory called grass-6.4.0RC4. The installation
process installs over it at "/usr/local/grass-6.4.0RC4/" as I can see in
your first post, then this should be the root of the problem.

Perhaps its better to move the source tree somewhere else
(e.g. /usr/local/src).

Better to use pure "./configure" here.

Here too, use pure "make".
