As promised, and a bit sooner than expected (if at all):
pretty good test points for the double stereographic projection, sterea in
libproj/proj.
Double stereographic projection
======================
Examples.
My values, compared with (near) official sources.
My values are calculated with a reincarnation of libprojs sterea.
