[postgis-devel] [PostGIS] #440: [wktraster] Consolidate st_gdalgeotransform and st_esriworldfile into st_georeference

[David Zwarg]

Ok, sorry to pollute trac.

I was going to implement this common method in plPgSQL, since there
isn't a compelling reason to do it in C -- there's nothing special
happening in the GDAL C method.  I can set it up so that it defaults
to GDAL.

Thanks,
Zwarg
