[GRASSLIST:4077] Azimuthal Equidistant projection moves center latitude by 0.0299 degrees compared to specified lat_0

[Daren Zywicki]

When I create a new location with the azimuthal equidistant projection, my
center latitude moves by 0.0299 degrees from the one I specify for lat_0 in
the setup of the location. The center longitude lon_0 remains correct.

On redhat Linux 7.2, the shift is 0.0299. On solaris, under the same 
location scenario,
latitude is off by 0.004745 from the one specified by lat_0, and the longitude
is correct.

Has anyone else run into this? Is this expected based on the
azimuthal equidistant projection and choice of datum and ellipsoid (wgs84 in
this case)?
