Much of the time I do not need to transform the geometry so I have not 
loaded gdal/ogr on the system. The other reason is that I have loads of 
scripts that use shp2pgsql because that is all I need in most cases.

So with that I have never actually had to use ogr2ogr to load the data 
into postgis, but there is no technical reason not to.
