There is a problem with GDAL in general when used as DLL, missing delete
mechanism for objects that are internally allocated using operator new.

Right now there is no way (at least I'm not aware of any) to release those
objects. 

For example the OGRLayer, OGRStyleLabel etc... cannot be deleted withing
GDAL/OGR heap.
Either something like OGR_G_DestroyGeometry or OGR_F_DestroyFeature should
be used or something like I proposed in MS #697.
