Comment (by timmie):

 Hello,
 this problem still exists on my Windows XP computer with latest Grass
 (WinGRASS-6.4.0SVN-r38959-1-Setup.exe).

 The failure is definately not caused by PythonXY but by the way Python is
 included in the windows packages.

 I tried to debug:
 1) deinstalled GRASS
 2) deinstalled PythonXY
 3) installed latest GRASS => works fine.
 4) installed offical Python 2.5 =>
 http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.5.4/python-2.5.4.msi
 5) installed offical pywintypes =>
 http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/files/pywin32/Build%20214/pywin32-
 214.win32-py2.5.exe/download

 6) tried to start GRASS => no success, same error message.

 Thus, this bug is a blocker for all who have python installed besides a
 GRASS install on windows.
