Hi Roger, It would be great if you could make available your test shp, possibly point to it [or upload it to a shared OSGeo server] and your tiny mapfile directly in a comment in the ticket ( https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/issues/3514). Once you do that I'll test your mapfile with master/trunk.
