Todd,

I tried this on win32, and it seems to work for me.  I suspect you did not
pull the new gdal/ogr/ogrsf_frmts/vrt directory from CVS when updating.
You need to use the "cvs update -d" using the commandline cvs client to
pull out new directories as well as new files from CVS.  Do you have
a gdal/ogr/ogrsf_frmts/vrt directory?

Best regards,
