Ok, many thanks!  I'll proceed accordingly...

- I assume you would be exposing all the other necessary structures
  and stuff too, eh?  (FT_CMap_InitFunc, FT_DriverRec, etc).
- Do you need/want me to put in a bug somewhere?
- What release would I expect to see this change in?  2.3.6?  2.4?

Thanks!
