Travis,

I suspect you have an older libgdal.so on your system, and the link
path produced by configure is picking it up first.  It is virtually
impossible to have configure always pick a link path to get all the
right versions of libraries when a mixture of stuff is on the
system.  You may be able to adjust the -L directives in the Makefile
manually to ensure the one for the install location of GDAL 1.7 is ahead
of whatever system library you are picking up.

You may also need to be careful about picking up the right library at
runtime.

Best regards,
