Ah, Mirone is a Matlab based graphical interface to Gdal, that uses Matlab routines for warping in addition to Gdal. What I am looking for is a command-line tool to warp an image without any shearing. Ideally in the form of an option to Gdal. Is this possible, or can it be made? It wouldn't be too difficult to adapt the -order 1 flag so as to leave out the shearing.

Jan,

What you want is to apply a transformation called (at least on the Matlab parlance) "Linear conformal" which an afine transform but without the the shear terms. Mirone has it implemented and if your image has the GCPS embedded the operation is really simple.
Thanks Joaquim, that's exactly what I meant. How can I use Mirone's implementation?

See the manual for example at (the program comes with a .chm version too). Expand the "Image->Register Image" entry

the above link is from an old-to-be-updated page. For program download use w3.ualg.pt/~jluis/mirone
