may I suggest to move the build instructions into the Wiki? Currently we have http://grass.osgeo.org/grass63/binary/mswindows/native/#Build GRASS From Source http://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/BuildingOnWindows http://www.webalice.it/marco.pasetti/grass/BuildFromSource.html#GRASS which is rather confusing. A publicly editable document may accelerate the progress to obtain a winGRASS 6.4.0RC2 since more people can add suggestions and update the document to GRASS 6.4.x.
