 AFAICT this fix above should help.

 but there seems a very interesting issue with osgeo-msys-commandline.

 I've tried following in the osgeo4w-stack and examples from
 http://trac.osgeo.org/proj/wiki/GenParms, but not in the modified
 WinGrass65-install.

 (1) open OSGeo4W Shell (which is a windows-command-line with all osgeo4w-
 utilities):

 {{{
 C:\>echo %PROJ_LIB%
 C:\OSGeo4W\share\proj
 }}}

 {{{
 C:\>cs2cs +proj=latlong +datum=WGS84 +to +proj=latlong +datum=WGS84
 +pm=madrid
 0 0
 3d41'16.58"E    0dN 0.000
 {{{

 all works fine, but

 (2) open osgeo4w-msys-shell

 }}}
 syringia at NADA ~
 $ echo $PROJ_LIB
 C:\OSGeo4W\share\proj
 }}}


 {{{
 syringia at NADA ~
 $ cs2cs +proj=latlong +datum=WGS84 +to +proj=latlong +datum=WGS84
 +pm=madrid
 0 0

 }}}

 nothing happens, no computations of the new coordinates, a blank line is
 waiting (I've waited about 10 minutes, but nothing happend)

 so maybe there are underlying problems of proj4/cs2cs in an (osgeo4w-
 inherited) msys-environment?

 best regards
 Helmut
