* of the projection and ellipsoid by looking them up in the srs.bs sqlite
* database. Also having the ellpse and proj elements stripped out
* is helpful to speed up globbing queries (see below).
*
* We try to match the proj string to and srsid using the following logic:
*
* - perform a whole text search on srs name (if not null). The srs name will
* have been set if this method has been delegated to from createFromWkt.
* - if the above does not match perform a whole text search on proj4 string (if not null)
* - if none of the above match convert the proj4 string to an OGR CRS
* then check if its a geocs or a proj cs (using ogr isGeographic)
* then sequentially walk through the database (first users qgis.db srs tbl then
* system srs.db tbl), converting each entry into an ogr srs and using isSame
* or isSameGeocs (essentially calling the == overloaded operator). We'll try to
* be smart about this and first parse out the proj and ellpse strings and only
* check for a match in entities that have the same ellps and proj entries so
* that it doesn't munch yer cpu so much.
