Martin,

I don't have objections. My only fear is that the addition of the SQLite
dependency in the VFK driver would cause compilation problems in some
setups/platforms that would have an ancient SQLite version for example. But as
we have already the SQLite dependency in the GML driver, provided you don't use
too recent sqlite3_XXX functions (and a quick grep does not show anything exotic
indeed), this should be OK. Did you also test that the compilation is OK for
people who configure GDAL without the sqlite dependency ?
