Steve,

My initial tests on win32 indicate that yes, MrSID DSDK v7 does work with GDAL (1.5) with no source mods.  My test image was RGB 3-band unsigned short.

The locations of the header files has changed, though, so a windows build should now have this more simple option in the nmake.opt:
MRSID_INCLUDE = -I$(MRSID_DIR)\include
