If you look at
<http://trac.osgeo.org/proj/browser/trunk/proj/src/PJ_eqc.c>

and the chapter 12 of Snyders manual, you will only find formulas for 
the sphere. So I guess there is no other way to calculate eqc.

Maybe older versions calculated another radius for the sphere when an 
ellipsoid was given.
