GDAL isn't turning this into a proper proj.4 string.

is coming out of GDAL as:

note the parameters, they're all 0.

I don't know whether or not this is a bad set (or incompletely specified) of 
GeoTIFF keys, or whether or not GDAL should be taking the ProjectedCSTypeGeoKey 
straight off, as this defines the coordinate system parameters fully via 
lookup.  Frank, are you still around?
