Comment:

 Current stable GDAL interprets EPSG:3078 in the following way:

 {{{
 $ epsg_tr.py 3078 -proj4
 # NAD83 / Michigan Oblique Mercator
 <3078> +proj=omerc +lat_0=45.30916666666666 +lonc=-86 +alpha=337.25556
 +k=0.9996 +x_0=2546731.496 +y_0=-4354009.816 +ellps=GRS80 +datum=NAD83
 +units=m +no_defs  <>
 }}}

 As you see there is no no_uoff parameter above. Since QGIS CRS is created
 according to GDAL's interpretation of EPSG codes (epsg_tr.py output) this
 is not a QGIS issue but a GDAL one.

 Please report it to GDAL devs. Once it is fixed in GDAL (i.e. epsg_tr.py
 produces a correct proj4 representation of EPSG codes in question) add a
 notice to this ticket and QGIS CRS database will be updated.
