Mapserver handling BBox in different coordinate systems

Hallo Barend!

(I think I remember you from the 2 parts of the GIMA course I took about
3 years ago)

I use the BBOX parameter in the request, but that is exactly where the
problem arises. The BBOX values are in lat/lon, but somehow mapserv
interprets them as being in RD - coordinates, at least, that is my gut
feeling.
