Simon,

It is a bug in OGRVRTLayer::GetExtent().  It is mistakenly directly calling
GetExtent() on the CSV file layer when it really needs to translate the
features (pulling out the right fields for geometry) and compute the extents
on that.  The problem persists in trunk.

Could you file a ticket on this?

Best regards,
