Yes, I can confirm this, building against gdal and proj works for me too, 
as does Barry's nice subsetting. So maybe your database link will be quite 
good - the [.ogr function makes an ogr object for the subset, and only 
when you do as.data.frame() og the ogr object does the data get read into 
R.
