[Gdal-dev] gdal with ecwsdk 3.2

Answering my own question.  It seems a simple replace of libNCSE* with 
libecwj2.so is all thats needed in the configure script.   Also in the ecw 
directory you need to do 'ln -s Source/include .'

This gets it so that GDAL mostly compiles.  But here's the problem now.  
In the frmts/ecw directory the compiler has problems.  Mostly it seems to 
do with typedefs.  It looks like the gdal code needs to #include "ECW.h".  
This help resolve alot of the problems, however there are still some I 
haven't tracked down.  Am I the only one having issues with this?  Has 
anyone else tried these libraries?  I'm building on Suse 9.3 64-bit.  
Thanks for any help.
