Proj 4.9.0 will use improved algorithms for geodesics (the same as those
in GeographicLib) and will expose an API for these calculations.  See

   http://geographiclib.sf.net/html/C/geodesic_8h.html

for documentation.  A beta release of this version of Proj.4 is
available at

   http://download.osgeo.org/proj/proj-4.9.0b2.tar.gz
