 I had been using the macports version of proj, but cs2cs is giving me
 incorrect results.

 According to a FAQ I found, and also an older version that I had built:

 {{{
 cs2cs +proj=latlong +datum=NAD27 +to +proj=latlong +datum=NAD83
 -117 30
 }}}
 produces:
 117d0'2.901"W   30d0'0.407"N 0.000

 While on the current port build I get a results of:
 117dW   30dN 0.000 (which is identical to the input).

 My guess is that one, or more, of the necessary proj files is missing
 (conus?).  I did try just copying the conus file over to
 /opt/local/share/proj but that didn't help.  I think that maybe all the
 projection files have to correctly be in place before building?
 This is a big problem because this is an important conversion tool that is
 giving a wrong answer rather then just giving an error.

 Thanks,
