Things start to dawn here... My own output was also bad, but I haven't  
recompiled mapserver since gdal moved to libtool supported compilation  
so no errors yet occured.
Check the dates of the files that were in your ldd ouput. You will see  
that the libgdal.1.1.so is older than the others. Recently, gdal  
changed its compilation method and hence the name of the .so files. You  
should probably remove the libgdal.1.1.so, rerun ldconfig, then try to  
recompile mapserver. Probably you will have to rerun ./configure for  
mapserver for it to find the new gdal? If it complains now that it  
cannot find gdal this means that the mapserver configure script has not  
yet been adapted to the new gdal name. Then you can recompile gdal  
using the '--without-libtool' switch which will - I think - use not  
only the old mechanism but only the old name. Please, some of the gdal  
developers, correct me if I'm wrong here.
Sorry I can't try this myself here at the moment. But this should be  
it.

Cheers,
Vincent.
