Comment(by robe):

 Even,

 Thanks very much for the input.  I guess it's too late to make corrections
 for GDAL 1.9.0 since its already at RC1.

 At the very least we'll need to correct the column namings or provide a
 legacy view version that people stuck using the old driver can use that
 includes both old and new names.  Now that our tables are all views, it's
 a bit easier to do as a patch.

 I'll put in a ticket on GDAL to fix the column names in queries.  As far
 as the window case not sure what to do about that.  We should be suing
 ST_MakeEnvelope instead of ST_SetSRID(ST_MakeBox2D .. since we are trying
 to phase out box2d and its also shorter to write.  ST_MakeEnvelope was
 introduced in 1.5, but since raster is new itself I think its safe enough
 to replace on the raster driver.

 I unfortunately have not been successful building postgis raster support
 into my mingw compiled gdal because it can't find pgqconnectdb or
 something.
