Tim,

I have stripped out use of the C++ include files, so adding calls
to the C++ API will require adding new #includes, not just an
inadvertent method call or anything like that.

It is also reasonable easy to verify by doing grepping the "nm"
output all all the .so files for OGR, GDAL and CPL.  If only the
C API all that should show up in nice undecorated function names.

Best regards,
