Proj.4 is not used at all in the sense that GeoTools has no dependency toward 
the Proj.4 library. However most projection formulas are port of Proj.4 C/C++ 
code to Java, licenced under LGPL with Frank Wamardam permission. Note however 
that the Java code has been refactored in various way with time, so when 
comparing the C/C++ and Java codes their relationship may not be obvious.
