Folks,
The story is that it was set to use 'double' instead of 'float' when
handling coordinate inside GV.
Originally it was set to sidestep the implicit type conversion from
double <--> float that occur between GV / OGR and GV / PROJ.
It turn out that it make no discernible difference whether on or not
(as far as I can tell.)
This switch is require for the S52 plug-in as everything is in
double on the S52 side and S52 use GV coordinate "in place".

So it's not required for general use. It double the memory foot print
for the coordinate. So it add overhead. YMMV.

Sylvain.
