It's a known issue, although I'm surprised that it hasn't
been fixed already.Setting GIS_LOCK (to anything) in init.bat should prevent

I can't remember if I posted it to the list or not, but one thing I
discovered recently is that concurrent session use in WinGrass doesn't
work. The old session takes on the .gisrc of the new one and everything
gets rather confusing for a little while.
