FYI, freetype-py is entirely ctype-based, and my fontval-diag branch works in
exactly that way - passing a function pointer in my extra python code to
freetype-py to get diagnostic info out of freetype's truetype module. I looked
up how to make it work and so it works that way (inherited from the Microsoft
design where a function pointer get passed from the c# side of things into
their proprietary font module).
I don't remember the details but it is just a few lines of python code. You can
just diff my fontval-diag branch of Freetype-py against master to see how it is
done.
