 The obvious common factor between g.region and g.proj is GDAL.

 I would guess that the libtiff.dll which is being loaded isn't the one
 which GDAL wants. You can use [http://www.dependencywalker.com/ Dependency
 Walker] to determine where libraries are being loaded from.

 The %PATH% environment variable is the last resort for locating libraries,
 so if there is a libtiff.dll in e.g. Windows or Windows/System32, it will
 take precedence. The only locations which are ahead of the Windows
 directories are the executable's directory (i.e. $GISBASE/bin) and any "
 Side-by-Side Assemblies" specified in the program's manifest (if it has
 one).

 We're already faced with having to create manifests to keep UAC happy, so
 it would be useful if someone could read up on this stuff and figure out
 how to use manifests to control searching for DLLs.
