[gdal-dev] ogr2ogr does not project coordinates in csv file

Dear list,

I am trying to transform a list of coordinates in a csv file from EPSG:4326 to a KML in UTM 32N (EPSG:32632). I am using this command:
ogr2ogr.exe -f KML -t_srs epsg:32632 out.kml 4326.vrt

However the output coordinates are not transformed (see output below). What is it that I am missing?

Kind regards
Johann

THe vrt file loooks like this:
<OGRVRTDataSource>
  <OGRVRTLayer name="4326">
    <SrcDataSource relativeToVRT="0">4326.csv</SrcDataSource>
    <GeometryType>wkbPoint</GeometryType>
    <GeometryField encoding="PointFromColumns" x="lon" y="lat"/>
    <LayerSRS>EPSG:4326</LayerSRS>
  </OGRVRTLayer>
</OGRVRTDataSource>

The csv file looks like this:
P, lon, lat
1, 6.219200, 46.572210
2, 9.345943, 46.605497
3, 9.330450, 44.000110
4, 6.343561, 43.969698

The resulting kml file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<kml xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2">
