The path is handled via GRASS_PROJSHARE:

[neteler at north wxpython]$ grep GRASS_PROJSHARE */*
./gui/wxpython/location_wizard/wizard.py:        epsgdir =
utils.PathJoin(os.environ["GRASS_PROJSHARE"], 'epsg')
./gui/wxpython/core/settings.py:            projFile =
PathJoin(os.environ["GRASS_PROJSHARE"], 'epsg')

which comes from

./lib/init/init.sh:if [ ! "$GRASS_PROJSHARE" ] ; then
./lib/init/init.sh:    GRASS_PROJSHARE=CONFIG_PROJSHARE

which comes from

./lib/init/Makefile:    -e \"s#CONFIG_PROJSHARE#$(PROJSHARE)#\" \
./lib/init/Makefile:    -e \"s#CONFIG_PROJSHARE#$(PROJSHARE)#\" \

which comes from


configure:PROJSHARE=
configure:        PROJSHARE="$with_proj_share"
configure:if test -z "$PROJSHARE" ; then
configure:    PROJSHARE=/usr/local/share/proj

This is the --with-proj-share switch.

Hypothesis: No "make distclean" was done after PROJ4 installation?
