Sorry, can't remember which ones work well and which ones don't.  I
think it should work though.  If it configures and compiles ok with
it.

Just try the online tigermaps, toposerver, or terraserver.  Those
will tell you if wget/libcurl and ImageMagick are working properly
for you.

For Shapefiles, you'll have to download at least one and try it.
After indexing it of course.
