A new release of MITAB (probably 1.6.0) should be available soon, the 
main feature in this release is improved spatial index generation code 
that produces an optimized R-Tree and gives spatial search performance 
comparable to TAB files generated by MapInfo. Thanks to Aircom 
International (Andrew Blake) for funding this work.

If anyone is interested in testing this before it's released then your 
feedback would be welcome (please file bug reports with testcase if you 
find any issue). You can grab the latest MITAB source from CVS. Use CVS 
instructions at http://ka-map.maptools.org/index.phtml?page=cvs.html but 
checkout project 'mitab' instead of ka-map.
