Comment (by martinl):

 By Michael Barton from grass-dev:

 For #295, the region is not really "corrupted". g.region should be used
 for precise setting of extents and resolution of the computational region,
 not the interactive display canvas. Zooming the display (approximately) to
 the computational region is a convenience option that is indeed very
 handy, but not precise. Setting the computational region from the display
 is precise I believe (that is, the computational extents match the display
 extents), but is still a convenience rather than designed to be a
 precision control (that is, the extents match within the limits of the
 display and computational region resolutions).
