If PDAL can open the output index file, it tries to use it and assumes that
it has all the necessary fields to accommodate the output.  If you had an
existing, empty shapefile, this isn't going to be the case.  It happens to
error when it tries to write the filename to a field that we normally
create.  I'll try to get some better error checking/info for this.
