Just for the record:
* The article by Jaworski in Geodeta describes the Uklad 1965, apart from
errors in the inverse, very well.
* The article "Polskie Uklady wspolrzednych" by Kadaj is NOT the defining
document.
* "Wytyczne Techniczne G-1.10", also by Kadaj, seems to be the defining
document.
> the proper theoretical definition
If there are legal questions, get the proper source: G-1.10.
If there are only practical questions: I think you will not get closer than
the already analyzed Geodeta article.
The Polskie Uklady article offers some extra's:
- Analytical expressions for meridian convergence and point scale factor.
- Gugik-80 approximations for Uklad 1965.
I cannot speak for PROJ.4/libproj4/Gdal/Grass/....
