That would certainly make a difference, but it didn't work for me either.
I do re-projections like this often in QGIS (with the Vector->Data 
Management tools).  If this is going all wrong, my gut reaction is that 
the original is projected in some other, so far unknown, projection.

Are you on the qgis-developer  maillist? You'd probably get better 
responses there.
