Um... maybe we could patch MapServer to trim leading spaces but that implode(
"\n", ...) doesn't smell good anyway. I tested this code and it won't work with
projection definitions with more than one parameter unless you prefix your
projection parameters with "+", in which case you don't need the implode at all
since passing a "+"-delimited string directly works. 

The right way to pass projection definitions to PROJ are using "+" prefixes, or
comma-separated parameters with no spaces:

"+init=epsg:42304"
or
"+proj=lcc +ellps=GRS80 +lat_0=49 +lon_0=-95 +lat_1=49 +lat_2=77 +datum=NAD83
+units=m"
or
"proj=lcc,ellps=GRS80,lat_0=49,lon_0=-95,lat_1=49,lat_2=77,datum=NAD83,units=m"

The reason why "init=epsg:42304" also works it's because it falls in the
comma-separated case.
