such that shp2img.exe or mapserv.exe will not use the correct version of gdal

<FONT color=#000080 size=2 face=Arial><SPAN class=617522007-17022011>Note to
spice this up, I had the project ready in ArcGIS to export and the export failed
since ArcGIS does not export maps in JPEG2000 format (it can do individual rater
data though) and the other formats rendered all night because the output
was becoming to huge for windows to handle ;)<BR></SPAN></FONT><FONT
