Based on the traffic I've heard on from the GDAL side, this may not be
fixed. Word(not 100% confirmed) is that Erdas no longer offers the ECW
dll files for free from their website so their is no way to build in
support. So ECW support may require that you purchase such drivers from
Erdas.

So you might want to consider moving your data out of that format to
something with a more clear license like Mrsid.

Enjoy,
Alex
