Comment(by strk):

 Another option (the option above doesn't help in engaging the Proj4 cache
 objects) is to define a range of SRID reserved for private use (say, in
 the range 910000-919999) and use those, rather than negative ones. If we
 go with the private range, we should somehow make it clear, maybe adding
 records in the spatial_ref_sys table to prevent others from installin
 things there.
