I don't think so, but if you tell me what functions you have to call,
I can look it up more closely.

This is very vague. Can you give an example?

Wrapping the code sounds just fine.

Well, if your custom files are not useful to normal FreeType clients
(this is, ordinary OS/2 applications) I believe it is better that the
code gets directly included with the OS/2 font driver.
If you need FreeType fixes to non-custom files please tell us so that
we can add the needed functionality.
