when you are compiling and building within the osgeo4w-build-environment,
the binaries are installed in
C:\OSGeo4W\apps\grass

here on my box, there are i.e. following folders in the directory above (can
be different, depending what you have compiled for your own):
grass-6.4.0
grass-6.4.1
grass-6.4.1svn
grass-6.5.svn
grass-7.0.svn

but there is no system-wide installation (including an uninstaller), the
binaries are only C:\OSGeo4W\apps\grass\grass-X.X

if you are svn up the source and want to be sure that there isn't any
possible mixing binaries between several compiling cycles, just switch -
before starting a new compiling session - into i.e.
C:\OSGeo4W\apps\grass\grass-6.5.svn in the osgeo4w-msys-shell and do /rm
-rfv */  for deleting all binaries and  then switch back to
C:\OSGeo4W\usr\src\grass6_devel for a new compiling session.
