Description
It would be useful to have a pgeo switch for ./configure. Currently --with-odbs implies pgeo built, if . One can't have odbc without pgeo.

Replying to warmerdam:
Why would it be useful to have odbc without pgeo?
Otherwords: Although pgeo requires odbc, it is not so the other way round. ODBC can be usefull on it's own I guess (http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_odbc.html).
Since odbc does not require pgeo, I suppose pgeo should not be built by default when ODBC is enabled.
If that's a bad idea please close the ticket.

I think it is a bad idea - it just complicates the configure interface.
Our normal practice is to build in as many drivers as we can with the supporting libraries that are available. Note that you can always edit the GDALmake.opt file and disable particular things (like changing PGEO_SETTING). On windows you would remove pgeo from ODBCDIR in gdal/ogr/ogrsf_frmts/makefile.vc.
