Bryan,

You can use the third or fourth arguments of the OGRBuildPolygonFromEdges
which indicate the option to close the polygon automatically and the
tolerence respectively.

Refer to
http://www.gdal.org/ogr/ogr__api_8h.html#74f64386be8d675e8da33d289ccc9892for
a more clear description of the function.
