Steve,

I have kind of lost the thread of this issue.  I would note that 1.60 is
not the most recent release of OpenEV, the OpenEV_FW 1.6.2 is though 1.60
is the most recent formal Atlantis release.   Are you using a GDAL you
built with the 1.6.0 OpenEV distribution?  It would appear that GDAL's
python bindings are compiled with a different version of python than the
one distributed with OpenEV.

Best regards,
