If you have a DLL in a system that is meant for
shared use then it should be in the system PATH. Thus I believe the

I notice on my system, the dll is "gdal17.dll"
That is, the version is part of the file name, so there shouldn't be a
problem with different versions installed in the PATH.
WE could even use a longer filename, like *nix systems, we're not
restricted to 8.3 anymore, are we?
gdal-1.7.1-a.dll
for instance.
Though maybe setting up the build to do that is more trouble that it's
worth.
