Equidistant cylindrical projection

[Ben Lloyd-Hughes]

Hi,

I'm having a terrible time trying to serve an image of an ESRI shape
file.  From ogrinfo I get:

$ ogrinfo -so CNTRY95_eqc.SHP CNTRY95_eqc
INFO: Open of `CNTRY95_eqc.SHP'
using driver `ESRI Shapefile' successful.

So far so good - then I have a MAP file:
