Even,

I think I have ported GDAL modifications to the current json-c upstream.
Here is Git repo with branch called gdal-modification:

https://github.com/mloskot/json-c

I have tested it on Windows 7 with Visual Studio 2010 and
seem to work fine. I don't have access to any Linux machine at the moment,
so I will wait a bit with merging this branch into json-c in GDAL trunk
until I have a moment to get Linux env running.

Meanwhile, if anyone would want to give it a try and test, I will appreciate.

Cheers,
