Comment (by pkelly):

 Does this really apply to every command? Can you give another example
 other than "g.region -p"?

 Also, how was the location created? Does the same behaviour occur in a
 location that wasn't created using WinGRASS (e.g. does it happen with
 spearfish?)

 Potential technical explanation:
 I suspect it might just be another example of G_getl() needing to be
 replaced by G_getl2() when reading the projections file and creating the
 PROJ_INFO - the newline character is stripped off but the carriage return
 isn't.

 IMHO the best solution to this is to audit all occurences of G_getl() and
 replace them with G_getl2() if there are no potential problems, then
 replace G_getl() itself with a wrapper to G_getl2().
