Mapinfo driver does not report correct geometry type for multipolygons

[bartvde@…]

Using ogrinfo on the attached Mapinfo TAB file gives type Polygon, but in the
file are also multipolygons. This becomes apparent when trying to convert the
file using ogr2ogr to PostGIS.

C:\Programs\FWTools0.9.9>ogrinfo D:\temp\gebiedsgericht\geo\basisgebieden_conept
4.TAB
Had to open data source read-only.
INFO: Open of `D:\temp\gebiedsgericht\geo\basisgebieden_conept4.TAB'
using driver `MapInfo File' successful.
1: basisgebieden_conept4 (Polygon)

From Frank's email:
It would seem this is in the mapinfo driver.  It ought to return type
GEOMETRY for polygon files that may have multipolygons.  Could you
file a bug report and attach a sample demonstrating the issue?

Mapinfo file demonstrating the problem

The mitab code has been matched to return wkbUnknown for region-only layers
since some of the geometries may be multipolygons.
