... but the requested TFW file is not produced. While without "-gcp's" it is.

I think this bug is invalid since the use of GCPs is incompatible with the use of a geotransform matrix, so we can't generate a worldfile. However, to make things clearer to users, I've added a warning in GTiffCreateCopy when GCPs are used and TFW=YES or WORLDFILE=YES. Commited in trunk in r12371
