right, `g.proj -jf` returns
{{{
+proj=merc +lat_ts=0.0 +lon_0=0.0 +x_0=0.0 +y_0=0 +k=1.0 +no_defs
+a=6378137 +rf=298.257223563 +towgs84=0.000,0.000,0.000 +to_meter=1
}}}
while proj.4 epsg file says
{{{
<3857> +proj=merc +a=6378137 +b=6378137 +lat_ts=0.0 +lon_0=0.0 +x_0=0.0
+y_0=0 +k=1.0 +units=m +nadgrids=@null +wktext +no_defs <>
}}}
