I guess it's not only a problem of gdalinfo but of some parts of GDAL in 
general dealing with the ECW. 

I made some more tests and when I add the options  
  -co DATUM=WGS84  -co PROJ=NUTM32 
to the gdal_translate call then gdalinfo identifies the coordinates correctly 
afterwards, but then of course the whole projection is set to UTM...

It seems that the default value entered for DATUM is "RAW" and that seems to 
cause some of the problems afterwards for GDAL. The problem for me is that I 
need to insert the correct datum and projection using the syntax of ECW, and I 
don't know if all available datums/projections used e.g. in Europe are 
supported, and which syntax to use for the available ones.

I found on my Windows installation a file "PcskeyProjDatum.dat" with a few 
definitions of projection and datum used but this was very limited and covered 
mainly UTM and NAD. Most European projections and datums were missing in this 
file.
