 Replying to [comment:15 neteler]:
 > Is this still a problem?

 An exhaustive test of grass/qgis/cs2cs/postgis against 4.8.0-final re.
 proj4 bug # 122 has been on my too list since way too long ago. I'll try
 to get to that this week.

 From what I understand, QGIS is still broken, although they use a
 different path than grass and their solution involved patching particular
 CRSs as people complained, each time the CRS files were updated. :-/  But
 Frank did clean up the situation a bit before the 4.8.0 release, so I'm
 hoping for success.


 best,
 Hamish
