this works now.  With the ms4w package, I tested the following server

http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv_42.exe?map=/ms4w/apps/chameleon/samples/map/chameleon.map

My initial test did not work (no previews) because the preview uses epsg:4326 by
default and the map file (chameleon.map) does not supply projections for the
layers (only at the map level).  The effect of this is that mapserver does not
reproject the layers.

Adding an appropriate projection object to each layer enabled me to preview it
and add it to the map file.

This is (apparently) not a bug in mapserver, just the way it works.  In fact,
when using the WMS interface and getting the capabilities of this map file, you
see warnings in the xml document ...  but they are specified as comments so it
won't be possible to find them programmatically (or its not easy so I'm not
interested in trying it right now).

I've committed the changes to chameleon.map.  No other changes were required.
