[maplab-users] GMAP problems

Well Paul good/bad news.  You have found a good bug.  In my previous 
tests it seems I was using mapfiles that did not require mapserver (or 
the proj4 library) to reproject.  In my gmapfactory test application 
(using a mapfile that forces a reprojection) using 
php_mapscript_44_beta2.dll no image is shown..but if I change 
globprefs.php to use php_mapscript_42.dll the map image appears. 
Removing the projection references in the mapfile eliminates this 
problem with php_mapscript_44.dll.  So you have found a good one indeed.
I've filed a bug on maptools 
(http://www.maptools.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=872) and hopefully we 
can come up with a solution for this shortly.
