ouch! my mistake.
i thought install-sh would behave like the standard linux install,
which is not true in the case of multiple source files.
i will fix it ASAP.

the very best way to link against gdal is probably somthing like:

LIBS	:= $(shell gdal-config --libs)

which works with both native and libtool builds and with older gdal versions
as well (hopefully back to may 2000 when gdal-config was first introduced)
