VIAF returns wrong IDs #21

In some cases VIAF doesn't return a GND-IDN, but a PICA-PPN instead. (This is often the case, if the GND-IDN contains a dash.)

E.g. looking for "Schlesinger'sche Buchhandlung" returns 991407407, which cannot be found.
If you check the full VIAF dataset '(http://www.viaf.org/viaf/138248454/viaf.json) it returns the full GND URI (http://d-nb.info/gnd/10364445-3).

And in this particular case this is redirected to a dataset with the latest IDN: 1073054446.

Can't think of an easy solution for this …
