[Proj] NAD problems on OSX 10.5 Leopard

[Richard Greenwood]

Ed,

Thanks for the detailed explanation. Nice, clean solution (I'd expect
no less fro you)!

I've done a bit of work on porting cs2cs to JavaScript. Grid shift
transformations pose an interesting challenge if you want to transfer
a minimum of data to the browser. Which is why I was curious as to
what you were doing.
