This is true specially for outline symbols. It can be easy to use a generic
outline symbol to reduce the number of generated symbols.

Currently I do not use Mapserver as WMS client, but if spaces cause problems,
It can be removed...

Gix uses the ArcView name for predefined projections with a known EPSG code. I
limited number of these "alias" has been defined. I live near Ecuator, so do
not use projections frecuently. You can customize this "alias" in the file:
$AVHOME\tools\GixMSTools.ESRIProj for your own projections. Send me a copy of
your modifications for the next version.
