Maciej,

For EPSG:2218, EPSG:2221 and EPSG:2296, the projection method number is 9826 ("Lambert Conic Conformal (West Orientated)") that is not supported by the big switch/case in SetEPSGProjCS() (see output of "CPL_DEBUG= testepsg EPSG:xxxx" provided you compile GDAL with --enable-debug). So in order to support it, someone would have to add support for this projection. For EPSG:3993, this is projection 9831 that isn't handled...

I've also observed that they are absent from the /usr/share/proj/epsg database. I guess it is also because proj.4 doesn't have support for part of the projection definition. So the effort should be done in GDAL and PROJ.4 to have something usable. Here's what I found on my system :

# Scoresbysund 1952 / Greenland zone 5 east
# Unable to translate coordinate system EPSG:2218 into PROJ.4 format.
#

# Scoresbysund 1952 / Greenland zone 6 east
# Unable to translate coordinate system EPSG:2221 into PROJ.4 format.
#

# Ammassalik 1958 / Greenland zone 7 east
# Unable to translate coordinate system EPSG:2296 into PROJ.4 format.
#

# WGS 84 / UTM grid system (southern hemisphere)
# Unable to translate coordinate system EPSG:32700 into PROJ.4 format.

Actually, there is a perfect reason for the EPSG codes unrecognized by GDAL to be absent from /usr/share/proj/epsg : this file is generated from GDAL !
