William,

I tried the file with testepsg, and it seemed to work fine.  Testepsg
(manually buildable in gdal/ogr) uses SetFromUserInput(). 

I don't see anything odd about the file in question nor any reason
it would fail.  If possible, you might want to trace through the code and
see what is going wrong. 

Best regards,
