[Proj] bug in cs2cs or what?

I'm trying to convert 3 points from WGS84 to local datum and I noticed that
during the datum change phase the coordinates are the same.
$ cs2cs -f "%.4f" +ellps=WGS84 +proj=geocent +to +towgs84=-199.0,74.0,246.0
+ellps=GRS80 +proj=geocent < WGS84_XYZ.txt ; more WGS84_XYZ.txt
Try datum=WGS84 instead of ellps. proj no longer does datum conversions
for the case of two ellipsoids, not sure about this case. I wonder if
proj should error out if given towgs84 and and ellipsoid, if this is
really what's going on.
