I haven't looked at it yet.  I'll see what I can do, probably a week or so (or 
less), depending on how simple the update is to work into my framework.  It 
will require a rebuild of GDAL also.

Bundling a spatialite might be troublesome - GDAL uses sqlite and spatialite 
also, so if you use my GDAL framework then you'll have multiple versions of 
spatialite available (from the sqlite framework and yours) in the QGIS 
compilation which might confuse the build.

Yes, I include freexl.
