[Xastir] USGS DRG maps again

Here's more info:

I recompiled libproj, libtiff, and libgeotiff in that order. No change.

Setting Xastir's debug level to 512 and deleting the index file causes the 
following output (sample):

/usr/local/xastir/maps/filled/usgs_drg/o30096d3.fgd
West Bounding:  -96.375000
East Bounding:  -96.250000
North Bounding: 30.500000
South Bounding: 30.375000
30.375000 30.500000 -96.375000 -96.250000

This indicates that the fgd file is being read properly. Why isn't the map 
index getting the right numbers? Is this in either the projection 
translation? The xastir-coordinates translation?
