Hi Volker.
Thanks for helping me to understand. So if I understand it correctly, the 
internal
GDAL KML writer is buggy, and should better be replaced by libkml. What are the
licencing issues? AFAIK libkml is BSD, more or less like GDAL.
If this is so, the issue is mainly a packager one, am I wrong?
All the best.
