Yes, I did. Are you compiling against libkml ? 

When running ogrinfo on the file it should display :
INFO: Open of `in.kml'
      using driver `LIBKML' successful.

If it displays "using driver `KML' successful", then you're using the 'old' 
KML driver, and gx:Track/MultiTrack won't be recognized.
