Matt, 

I am surprised that you have found this to be the case.  The projection
block always needs a closing END.

Tried the lower case, no change but adding the additional END fixed it
right away. This is the only mapserver app that I've ever needed to give
PROJECTION it's own END.

Thank you very much to both of you.
