Projection string management: GRASS GIS relies on GDAL/PROJ.

The EPGS DB is transformed into suitable CSV data for GDAL/PROJ
according to this procedure:
http://svn.osgeo.org/metacrs/geotiff/trunk/libgeotiff/csv/README

The EPSG CSV files are used via GDAL/OGR API from
gdal-config --datadir

The datum shift grids are also used from GDAL/PROJ (proj-nad package).

TODO: It is recommended to rely on PROJ4's proj-nad package. For doing so, 
      there would be some changes needed to lib/proj/get_proj.c - the call
      to pj_set_finder() should be removed so that PROJ looks in its default
      locations for the files.

      Function:
      const char* pszDatumshiftfile = CPLFindFile( "gdal", "datum_shift.csv" );

##########
# EPSG code queries:

# printing all available datum shift codes
ogrinfo /usr/share/gdal/datum_shift.csv -al
ogrinfo /usr/share/gdal/gcs.csv -al

# selective printing
ogrinfo /usr/share/gdal/datum_shift.csv -al -where "SOURCE_CRS_CODE = '4156'" -al
ogrinfo /usr/share/gdal/gcs.csv -al -where "COORD_REF_SYS_NAME LIKE '%JT%'"

# print NAD file info
gdalinfo /usr/share/proj/hawaii

# query codes
gdalsrsinfo EPSG:5514

# transform between projections
gdaltransform -s_srs EPSG:4326 -t_srs "+proj=longlat +datum=nad27" --debug on

The resulting values need to be identical (note: m.proj prints with less precision)
