[Proj] False Easting & Northing for LAEA?

Hello,

here we again face this problem that Proj.4 should
have the syntax check preprocessor to warn the user
about potentially dangerous (or omitted) statements
etc.

This is not the first time we see these errors due to
small typos or misunderstandings which the scanner
just took in without arguing about them.

regards: Janne.
