Your map configuration is very incomplete. OpenLayers does not pick up
things like units from proj4js for the map configuration, so you also have
to set units on the map. You also need to set maxExtent and maxResolution
on the map, otherwise you will get defaults from WGS84. Finally, if your
projection's units are meters, you also need to set your layer maxExtent in
meter coordinates.
