[gdal-dev] GDAL/OGR 1.8.0RC2 Release Candidate Prepared

[William Kyngesburye]

Looks mostly good here.

I submitted a couple build bugs (1 fixed already) and autotest bugs.

I'm having problems in the warp tests.  Diffs are a lot greater than from GDAL 1.7, including a few failures.  I don't know if it's just something different on my system from when I last compiled GDAL 1.7 or if there were some big changes in the code.  Any ideas before I submit a bug report on this?
