I've tracked the problem down to this file; or at least, I see *a*
problem here.  I'm printing the output of LatLongBoundingBox, and it
sure looks like UTM northing and easting rather than LatLong.  If I
load that file and then run Map/Projection..., it says that the map is
UTM Zone 18.  Great!  Thuban knows that it's UTM.  So why is
LatLongBoundingBox printing UTM?  It's calling self.Inverse, to get
the inverse projection (that is, lat/lon).  How can the inverse of UTM
be UTM??
