 Trying to write current mapcanvas as an image of type GIF (using menu
 'File/Save as Image') will write a foo.gifw world-file, but not the
 corresponding foo.gif.

 Tested on trunkversion on both Windows (osgeo4w dev build) and on Ubuntu
 10.04 (r13741).

 I also tried to use the MapCanvas.saveAsImage-python to write a gif-file,
 and that also resulted in only the worldfile.
