P,

It worked fine for me.

GDAL: GDALClose(mrlc_utm_cl)

GDAL: GDALDeregister_GTiff() called.

Note, don't give the bare .adf filename or it won't work for some
reason.  Even ./w001001.adf should work but w001001.adf won't.
Normally I give the name of the directory containing the w001001.adf
file since internally that is what is needed.

BTW, I just committed a fix in CVS to make it so that a bare "w001001.adf"
will work.  This quirk has caused problems a number of times.
