Comment (by crispinatime):

 Hi,

 I would tag this as "have workaround" and if someone can clarify the WMS
 specification documentation then it can be closed (or fixed).

 The workaround is to explicitly have a bounding box definition for the
 local SRS within the WMS GetCapabilities XLM (ie not a MapGuide workaround
 but from the WMS provider)... I have included a sample below.

 If the WMS specification does not absolutely require a bbox then it should
 stay open.  Otherwise it can be closed (but a better error message would
 have been more helpful).

 Many thanks to TF and GAIA for helping with this.

  Crispin
