[Ubuntu] Mapserver error with compiled GDAL

Update: Turns out it works as is! MapServer is serving up MrSID images 
through MapServer as expected. I had mis-configured MapServer. I am 
transitioning from Windows based MapServer to Linux, so that is 
presenting its own set of issues and tripped me up.

Still curious about that error message in the apache error log files 
though. Also curious whether there is going to be a GDAL 1.10 PPA for 
Precise and a libgdal-mrsid for Precise soon, etc.
