[Mapserver-dev] $oLayer->getShape() broken in cvs php_mapscript

[Daniel Morissette]

I have run into this as well and fixed it in CVS a few minutes ago.  

(It was not specific to PHP MapScript, it was caused by a change made a
few days ago to not trim leading spaces in DBF fields, so any attempt to
access shapefiles/DBFs to draw a map would have crashed as well.)
