Adam,

I agree with Sean as we have never used the queryMapObj here, but rather
just another mapObj. There have been a few issues that have come up
pertaining to the queryMapObj and for a spell I thought it should go the
way of the DBFInfo object, at least as far as the documentation goes for
mapscript.
