I'd certainly prefer not to hard require PROJ >= 8.2.0, but I don't see a good way to allow that without a lot of conditionalisation on PROJ version. It's not just the C code - there are some differences in the testsuite due to things like newer PROJ correcting for the vertical datum and older PROJ not. Maybe bumping the upstream minor version for the PROJ 8.2.0 compatible version would be a good approach - then people who don't have easy access to PROJ 8.2.0 have an obvious older Survex version to use, and any important bug fixes can be backported without having to add an extra version component.

As I noted in the upstream ticket (which I know you are subscribed to) Survex requires a fix to make proj_factors() actually usable in the "new PROJ" world. According to the doc change in the patch and the milestone set, this will be in PROJ 8.2.0: https://github.com/OSGeo/PROJ/pull/2868 There isn't a sensible workaround I can see, so if you want to push through the transition before 8.2.0 is out, please apply the above patch to the proj package. PROJ 8.2.0 is scheduled for release next week, just wait for that. You also mentioned in the upstream issue that you need a solution for other users who cannot upgrade to PROJ 8.2.0, did you give up on that and made 8.2.0 a hard requirement?
