It is not segfaulting anymore, I agree.
But is it enough to know that everything is ok and the package is not broken?

I am mean looking at the output of the 'check' phase (see [1]), it
displays a diff and I am not confident if it is good or not. That's
why I did not confirm that changing from proj.4 to proj works. Maybe I
mispelled "error" in my previous answer and the correct words seem "I
get an lengthy message and I do not know if it is ok." :-)
