Harley,

The libgeotiff 1.2.5 release included support .csv files with the EPSG 6.17
definitions.  I'm not sure if that includes your April 2008 definitions or
not.  It might be the version before that.

Note that the .inc files with coordinate system names are from the original
geotiff specification and have not been updated since.  I generally consider
them secondary to the .csv files.

Best regards,
