I think you have got a wrong impression of what FreeType's API is good
for.  It provides a more or less abstract, uniform interface to *any*
font format.  So, you can't `compare' since it hides most of the
technical details intentionally.

If you want to access some specific SFNT tables directly, use
FT_Load_Sfnt_Table.  Of course, you have to parse its contents by
yourself.
