Hello again

Now, the same problem occurred with an old .grassrc6 file from GRASS 6.3 
on an windows XP machine. When starting the wxpython gui there was a 
crash, after selecting the path to the GIS data directory. The solution 
was to start once with the old tcltk GUI so that a new .grassrc6 file 
was written, and then afterwards it was also possible to start the 
wxpython GUI.
