 This is really weird, and it doesn't happen on both Linux and QGIS
 standalone.

 I'm also positive that until a few weeks ago this wasn't an issue also on
 OSGEO4W.

 I have tested the following behavior on both XP and Seven, QGIS 1.6 and
 Trunk:

 *) install QGIS OSGeo4W with the GRASS plugin

 *) hit the button to create a new mapset

 *) in the first step select the GRASS database

 *) in the second step select "new location" and enter a name

 *) in third step is asked for the coordinate system: select "projection".
 You have then 3 ways to select the projection. Browsing the list and
 selecting a projection doesn't seems to create problems. Searching a
 projection by name or by id '''CAN''' crash QGIS. If you search for
 (examples) "4326" or "20790" no problem, but try search for "3003" or
 "3763" or "ETRS" and QGIS will CRASH.

 *) the same happens if you choose the projection from the list of the
 "recently used coordinate reference systems": if you choose (example)
 "WGS84" no problem on the other hand if among the list you have (example)
 "ETRS89/Portugal TM06" and you hit it, it causes instant CRASH.
