Initial version committed in r475 and r476.

Inclusion of GDAL stuff (e.g. GDAL data and the gdaladdo executable) is still missing.

This version only works on GNU/Linux and had been tested ina very coarse manner.

In r620 and r624 have been added support for packaging of GDAL support data and needed command line tools for both GNU/Linux and Mac OS X.
Also the environment setup have been fixed to run well from ''onedir'' and ''onefile'' environments (r620).

Pyinstaller packaging doesn't work on Mac OS X 10.6.x ''Snow Leopard'' presumaby due to an incompatibility on pyinstaller with this operating system version.
