    Hmm yeah I figured it had something to do with that. Thanks for the
    detailed explanation, Ben.
    But my question remains: should gt-epsg-wkt be allowed to produce the
    wrong CRS in the first place?


As far as I remember gt-espg-wkt always had east/north orientation in all CRS,
and people keep on using it like this.
I'm afraid changing the axis order now would break all existing users of
this module (e.g., I know of GeoServer customizations that use it instead of
epsg-hsql because they don't want databases to be created around, and
they don't give a damn about OGC/EPSG axis order, they actually want everything
east/north)

Isn't it unlikely that those users use the URI syntax. The geotools documentation claims that when you use the URI syntax the result is always perfectly predictable... quod non.

Niels
