[gdal-dev] gdal2tiles.py cannot find EPSG:900913, sees only GDAL 1.6.1

Of course, everyone knows that. The question is whether gdal2tiles, which
explicitly calls 900913, will run at all without that 'fake' code being
recognized by GDAL and its projection sources. And how to ensure that
gdal2tiles does in fact run.

More recent versions seem to implement 900913 to ensure this, but I cannot
get the latest stable (1.7.2) gdal to do so.

Thank you though -- sorry if I was unclear in my request.
