pyshapelib tests

[Bram de Greve]

Hi,

Weekends are mostly spent on other stuff, so sorry for the late reply =)

I've tried to build Thuban on my windows box, but I almost gave up after 
finding too much hurdles to take.  After adding tons of include and 
library dirs, and setting PATHs, I've bumped into this nice traceback 
after which I felt kind of tired =)

D:\bram\thuban_work\WIP-pyshapelib-bramz>thuban.py
Please update your PATH environment variable to include 
D:\bram\thuban_work\WIP-
pyshapelib-bramz\Thuban\..\gdal\bin

BUT, the test script you told of did seem to work (or rather not to work 
=) though.  Fortunately I've put the tons of include and library dirs in 
a batch file so that I could build a debug version rather quickly.  And 
so I was able to trace the first problem back to DBFClose(DBFHandle) 
which fails to check for a NULL handle.  Well, at least in my opinion 
this is a failure, because I'm of the believe that freeing, destructing 
and closing NULL pointers should be harmless.  I've fixed this in 
dbfopen.c and will send a patch for future versions ...

However, the test still crashes a bit later ... dbflib_read_record is 
called with args = NULL.  I've haven't been able to track down the cause 
of this problem yet.
