[gdal-dev] python bindings, no netcdf support

The installation of netcdf4-python doesn't interact with GDAL. You'll
need to build GDAL yourself with NetCDF support. I've never tried this
on Windows, but you can take a look at
http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/BuildHints to get started.

I'm also not sure if GDAL supports NetCDF4 directly. It looks like the
NetCDF driver is for NetCDF3. If you're lucky, NetCDF4 files might be
accessible in GDAL using the HDF5 driver...
