Hi,

One alternative could be to read your png files through GDAL virtual raster 
http://www.gdal.org/gdal_vrttut.html

Problem that you should solve is how to inject the file name into the 
SourceFilename element
<SourceFilename relativeToVRT="1">utm.tif</SourceFilename>

But the wms_extent metadata seems quite promising to me. You could then change 
the file with %variable% in DATA. How did you test that it has no effect?

Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I forgot to mention that
they're png-files.

You can specify the full proj style definition instead of the "init=epsg:xxxx" 
format. So maybe something like:

PROJECTION
  +proj=tmerc
  +lat_0=0.0
  +lon_0=15    # not sure this is correct long0 is for zone 33
  +x_0=-75000
  +y_0=6450000
  +a=6378137.0
  +b=6356752.3141403
  +datum=WGS84
  +units=km
END
