Hi Johnathan,

I made nothing different about that in the latest binary release fo Windows; 
I suppose it's a generic problem, not strictly related to the latest release

Actually no, afraid.
If you read here 
http://grass.osgeo.org/grass63/binary/mswindows/native/README.html#Release%20Notes 
you can actually see that LFS is enabled.
Are you sure that the command worked fine or finished to process data? 
sometimes the progress bar fails
Please, try again launching the command within the text command line (msys 
or dos, as you prefer)

Please report me the results.

Regards,

Marco
