Roger, This code was removed from GDAL trunk because a bit of it was derived directly from header files of the ODA libraries and so it was not properly licensed as open source. As of a year or two ago I believe it worked within the limited scope of what it was supposed to do - which was to export "simple features" DWG files from OGR datasources. Feel free to use the code, but keep in mind that the license provenance is flawed, though not necessarily insurmountable so. I'm not sure that this forum is the best place for additional discussion on technical details.
