Sounds like something amiss with the horn. Rather than lip down G#, which sounds hard to do accurately, a little further detective work might help.
It's hard to imagine just G - especially a normally sharp fingering - being the only problem. When a note is flat, it can mean a tone hole has something partly blocking air flow (especially on the "north side.) Any other intonation problems with the horn, particularly on notes that share part of the fingering?
Like, say D#: RT -23|-2-G# ? or D just below that?
How about G#: RT -2-|-2-G# ? Or the other 10 or more fingerings for G (see woodwind.org chart)? If you spot another problem, it might factor a common cause.
Curious.
