See http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/4838 for a fix. We can in fact use some 
API from Util.h to query the ESRI SRS DB and find the expected ESRI WKT 
definition from a EPSG code, or, if the EPSG code is unknown, to iterate over 
the ESRI DB SRS until we find a match by comparing the SRS with 
OSRSpatialRefrence::IsSame()
