When you get your gdal install fixed, you might not want to use "." as the 
directory.  Give it a name like "TdC_100" and it'll create a new subdirectory
with all the files in it.  If you do it with "." it'll dump 'em all in one
place with names like "trail_points.shp" or whatever, and it can
clutter your directory pretty badly (or clobber other conversions).

And whatever you do, never, ever do:

   ogr2ogr -f "ESRI Shapefile" TdC_100.gpx Foobar.shp

(i.e. putting input and output in that order, like every normal Unix command,
because it'll use your intended input file as the destination file, and clobber
it).
