[Lime, Steve D (DNR)]

Is it possible to easily derive units from a projection definition in Proj?

FYI:

PHP MapScript's mapObj.setProjection() already has a second (optional)
argument that can be used to automatically adjust the units and extents
to match the new projection.

The projectionObj also has a getUnits() method in PHP. Not sure if it's
there in the other languages.
