I don't see much point in porting the gdalautotest code to Perl since 
the scope of that is so much larger than the test code for the Perl API.

Let's have that debate? Or was there such already? I can't think of any 
good reason to keep the tests separate but many to have them integrated 
and a standard part of any compilation+installation.
