Usually what I do is create a sym link called "current" that I point to the newest version of Freesurfer. e.g.
cd /usr/local/freesurfer
ln -s $PWD/freesurfer-5.1.0 current

So then in my .bashrc file I set
FREESURFER_HOME='/usr/local/freesurfer/current'

Obviously you can change this if you wanted to use an older version.

    Or you may have multiple freesurfer versions within the freesurfer

    /freesurfer/5.0, /freesurfer/5.1, /freesurfer/5.2b,

    and then
    export
    FREESURFER_HOME=<freesurfer_installation_directory>/freesurfer/5.1 etc
