Same curve type as Adobe's ProPhoto RGB. However I'm seeing a difference in primaries and white point. Probably not big differences, but...

Adobe's version of ProPhotoRGB:

      <TagSignature>wtpt</TagSignature>
      <XYZNumber X="0.96420288" Y="1.00000000" Z="0.82489014"/>

      <TagSignature>rXYZ</TagSignature>
      <XYZNumber X="0.79766846" Y="0.28804016" Z="0.00000000"/>
      <TagSignature>gXYZ</TagSignature>
      <XYZNumber X="0.13519287" Y="0.71188354" Z="0.00000000"/>
      <TagSignature>bXYZ</TagSignature>
      <XYZNumber X="0.03134155" Y="0.00009155" Z="0.82490540"/>

Review version of ProPhotoRGB:
      <TagSignature>wtpt</TagSignature>
      <XYZNumber X="0.96429443" Y="1.00000000" Z="0.82510376"/>

      <TagSignature>rXYZ</TagSignature>
      <XYZNumber X="0.79771423" Y="0.28805542" Z="0.00000000"/>
      <TagSignature>gXYZ</TagSignature>
      <XYZNumber X="0.13516235" Y="0.71186829" Z="0.00001526"/>
      <TagSignature>bXYZ</TagSignature>
      <XYZNumber X="0.03132629" Y="0.00007629" Z="0.82489014"/>


Is there correction for flare in these values?
