This came up when i was testing r.in.ssurgo addon in parallel within RegionManager which uses WIND_OVERRIDE. v.proj was throwing:
Added test.

Details
When v.proj switches into the source project to read the input vector, it seeded its working region with G_get_window(), which honors WIND_OVERRIDE and GRASS_REGION. Those name a region in the caller's mapset, not in the source project, so the read failed with "Unable to open element file " whenever v.proj ran under a named temporary region (e.g. inside RegionManager, use_temp_region(), or parallel pipelines).Read the source project's default window instead. The seed value is
overwritten field by field from the input vector's extent immediately
afterward, so seeding from the default window is sufficient and does not
consult the override. G_unset_window() is dropped since it only existed
to defeat G_get_window()'s cache.
Add a regression test that runs v.proj with WIND_OVERRIDE naming a region
present only in the target mapset
