That is right, you can also the GDAL own CSV support:

http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/gdal/port/cpl_csv.cpp

Example of use are everywhere in the code, like here:

http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/browser/trunk/gdal/frmts/idrisi/IdrisiDataset.cpp#L2301

I believe that CPL_CSV is not exposed on the GDAL API but it is available for C  and C++ coders.
