Just to keep you informed that it is also now possible to connect to a 
gdalserver in TCP, possibly on a remote host. In that case, gdalserver must be 
launched on a host with "gdalserver -tcpserver the_tcp_port". And the client 
must set GDAL_API_PROXY_SERVER="hostname:the_tcp_port", where hostname is a 
string or a IP address.
