Can Hugin select those, or does it take a custom PT script?

I guess I was looking at outdated source.  Those projections were there, but
not  available as input image projections.  Having downloaded the current
SVN trunk I am in a position to be better informed.  But still not to build,
I am on a different machine from the one where I last built libpano, and it
lacks libtiff and those infernal Java headers.

I'm pretty well along with a universal "calibrated lens" projection and will
add it to libpano when it works (testing in calibrate_lens first).
