[FWTools] NG Bindings, numpy, & 1.4.0 Beta 1

[Howard Butler]

All,

1.4.0 beta 1 includes preliminary support for numpy in the next-gen  
bindings.  Functionally, it appears to work, but it has not been  
thoroughly tested.  Those who are interested in using numpy with GDAL  
are encouraged to build up the next-gen bindings and give it a  
whirl.  Catch me on #gdal if you have any issues with building or  
using it.
