+Returns true based on the EPSG code if EPSG would like this coordinate system to be treated as lat/long.  This is useful in contexts like WMS 1.3 where EPSG:4326 needs to be interpreted as lat/long due to the standard.

+This works like importFromEPSG() but will assign the ESPG defined AXIS definition.
 
 Note that OGRSpatialReference::!StripNodes( "AXIS" ); can be used to strip axis definitions where they are not desired.
