The problem is with IMAGETYPE png24 (OUTPUTFORMAT NAME png24 DRIVER ""GD/PNG""
IMAGEMODE RGBA TRANSPARENT ON END).
White space shows up in and around the characters in labels when displayed
on a map. With IMAGETYPE png things are OK.

I do not know much about this, and the mistake may be mine.

I include a minimum(?) map file.
