Executables built on an older version of the OS will generally run on the newer versions.

Only reason I was steering away from the pre-compiled binaries <br>
is they where for 5.8...<br>
but I used the 5.8 package seems to be working on 6.2 <br>

You can try using the --enable-dyn-supplibs, and there are some
macros to go hunting for the libraries that grads needs. A more
certain way to get it to build with all the features is to
collect the library and include files into one place and then
point GrADS to where they are are located. Please see the
documetation page <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://iges.org/grads/gadoc/supplibs.html">http://iges.org/grads/gadoc/supplibs.html</a>
for guidance on how to build and organize the supplemental
libraries. You may not have to build all these from source, you
could just copy the required files from /usr/lib/ or wherever
they are located on your system.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>But a much simpler solution would be to try one of the
pre-compiled x86_64 linux builds from <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://iges.org/grads/downloads.html?">http://iges.org/grads/downloads.html?</a>
Most of the libraries are statically linked -- they are about as
portable as they could be. </div>
