Can those running a guide let me know (on or off-list as preferred) what their guide settings are for:

geo_handler ellipsoid

as I'm trying to judge how best to integrate/release some of the Google maps stuff that was merged last month.

Looks like Southampton uses:

geo_handler = 1 ellipsoid it doesn't have

I take it that these setting are why the google maps stuff is off by a whole bunch of meters?

That depends on how you're entering your data, I'd assume. If you've used OS X/Y coords, then yeah, it's probably related. If users entered lat/long directly or from some service that spit them out as WGS-84, that wouldn't be the case.
