This submission produced revision 1951.

It turns out that the special circumstances referenced above consist of all cases where the binary fallback technique is used to locate a match between the WKT string and the CS-MAP dictionaries. This was cauuse by a simple onnission of one line of code. It all worked prior to RFC 2 as it was the nueric contents of the datum definition that were important and the name was usually ignored. Post RFC 2, this is just the opposite. The numeric portions of a datum definition are ignored and the name become very important.
