Tom,

My understanding was that the outputformat is selected based on it's name, not
the mime type though it is possible would work.  I would suggest a declaration
like:

OUTPUTFORMAT
   NAME GEOTIFF_RGB
   DRIVER "GDAL/GTiff"
   MIMETYPE "image/tiff"
   IMAGEMODE RGB
   EXTENSION "tif"
END

Hmm, thats odd.
