Comment (by pkelly):

 Hi Hamish,
 How long ago was the location created? g.setproj had a bugfix on 7 October
 2003 to create a negative zone number for southern hemisphere UTM
 locations (<http://freegis.org/cgi-
 bin/viewcvs.cgi/grass6/general/g.setproj/main.c.diff?r1=1.15&r2=1.16>).
 Are you saying that that doesn't work (i.e. the negative zone doesn't go
 into the WINDOW file) because libgis doesn't handle negative zone numbers?
 If so that would make this an incredibly long-running bug...
