This is the way things have been implemented.  Whether this is a good or
a bad thing could be argued I guess.  For sure we won't change this
behavior in version 3.6, but I'll CC the mapserver-dev list to find out
what others would think about changing the behavior in 3.7 so that OGR
CONNECTIONS try to honour the SHAPEPATH when it's set.
