Yes, it definitely looks like PROJ4.  I wonder whether they use the same 
SRIDs as PostGIS?  If not, that's yet another set of magic CRS 
number...  sigh.

This is good from the point of view of Proj4J - the more projects that 
use PROJ4, the more reason there is to stay close to that codeline with 
a Java lib.
