Comment(by alexbruy):

 If you examine attached shapefile with ogrinfo, you will see that it has
 MULTIPOINT geometry type

 {{{
 $ogrinfo -al teste.shp
 Layer name: teste
 Geometry: Multi Point
 Feature Count: 50
 }}}

 Single MULTIPOINT geometry can contain several points, so it is impossible
 to extract coordinates into one row. So I think this is invalid. Any
 objections to close ticket?
