Let me add a couple of suggestions for this:
* Dispose calls (FT_Done_Face etc) should accept a NULL pointer arg and
do nothing, like the libc free(3) call does. This makes it easier to
do unconditional cleanup of partially-allocated objects.
* FT_Reference_xxx calls should return the pointer that was passed to
them, like Cairo does. This way you can access an object and allocate
a reference to it in a single expression, e.g.
my_ref = reference(get_obj(whatever));
