In newer versions of the WKT definition there is sometimes a TOWGS84[...] tag 
included which contains the 7 shifting parameters, but I don't know if this is 
already a standard notation and if GDAL automatically takes this into account 
when found.

What should normally work is to use the Proj4 notation which includes the tag 
  +towgs84=.....

and then define the projection via the method
  ImportFromProj4()
