Description

We've been using ogr2ogr for some time, always with PROMOTE_TO_MULTI parameter. With a recent version (trunk @ rev 28335) there's a change in the behaviour: if we import a csv file without a "wkb_geometry" column, the command will create it, empty for all rows. Previous versions didn't, and if I remove that parameter, it won't create it.

This is the command: /usr/bin/ogr2ogr -f PostgreSQL PG:"host=127.0.0.1 port=5432 user=db_user dbname=db_name password=db_pass" /tmp/csv_provoking_wkb_geometry.csv -nln target_schema.target_table -nlt PROMOTE_TO_MULTI
