Thanks, got it.

So, it also fails with GDAL 1.10.x but works ok with GDAL 1.11.x:

--> all fine.

In the Fedora/RPM world there is "mock" to easily recompile a newer

Something similar will exist for Mint/Ubuntu etc. in order to avoid to
mess around manually with configure options.

hope this helps,
