a little more investigation, more revelation (see below)

I changed the OL library to the original, as downloaded from OL servers. The
click reported by the mouse position display is off from the click reported by
the map listener even with the original OL library, albeit, by a smaller
amount. For example, I clicked on [-78.35, 43.45] as shown in the mouse
position display. The click event reported [-77.97, 49.61]. A very small lng
shift but a fairly large lat shift.
This is quite perplexing, and definitely very erroneous.
