Hi,

Have I understood right that your WMS service works fine for the users but you are getting one unnecessary line into the error log per each requested layer which has projection set with the Proj.4 strings? So it is mainly an annoyance and does not prevent any real work? I think also that using correct Proj.4 strings for the input projection is not an error. However, log write behaviour can not be cured by advice from the users and better place to visit next is http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/.  You have enough and exact information for filing a fine bug report.

are extracting the projection information using GDAL, which allows us to
convert the projection to Proj.4 before inserting it into the mapfile. The
actual projection information is stored as a WKT. As far as I know, there
isn't a way to convert either of these to an epsg code automatically, since
WKT and Proj.4 are inherently open-ended and may express projections that
simply aren't defined in common epsg. I suppose we could insert our own epsg
definitions into the database, but the dynamic nature of the application
makes this less than ideal.
