 When trying to covert the following kml file to shapefile (and other
 vector formats)

 http://mapserver.uevora.pt/~mapserver/vias.kmz

 qgis crashes with the following terminal message


 {{{
 ERROR 6: Geometry type of `3D Geometry Collection' not supported in
 shapefiles.
 Type can be overridden with a layer creation option
 of SHPT=POINT/ARC/POLYGON/MULTIPOINT/POINTZ/ARCZ/POLYGONZ/MULTIPOINTZ.

 Fatal: ASSERT: "0 != dstLayer" in file
 /tmp/buildd/qgis-1.7.0+svn14934~lucid1/src/plugins/ogr_converter/translator.cpp,
 line 207
 Aborted
 }}}

 I guess is not a QGIS problem but a OGR one, nevertheless the exception
 should be caught to avoid the crash.

 Should I post the same kml file to the ogr trac?
