BTW, the ct.h changes don't have to be elaborate.  Something like

$ grep ct_ doc/api_status.txt | awk '/OK/ {print $3}' | perl -ne'chomp;
$old=$_; s/^ct/CT/; printf qq(#define %-20s\t%s\n), $old, $_'
#define ct_bind                 CT_bind

#define ct_cancel               CT_cancel
#define ct_capability           CT_capability
#define ct_close                CT_close
#define ct_cmd_alloc            CT_cmd_alloc
#define ct_cmd_drop             CT_cmd_drop
#define ct_cmd_props            CT_cmd_props
#define ct_command              CT_command
#define ct_compute_info         CT_compute_info
#define ct_con_alloc            CT_con_alloc
#define ct_con_drop             CT_con_drop
#define ct_con_props            CT_con_props
#define ct_config               CT_config
#define ct_connect              CT_connect

#define ct_exit                 CT_exit
#define ct_fetch                CT_fetch
#define ct_get_data             CT_get_data
#define ct_init                 CT_init
#define ct_options              CT_options
#define ct_param                CT_param
#define ct_res_info             CT_res_info
#define ct_results              CT_results
#define ct_send                 CT_send
#define ct_send_data            CT_send_data
#define ct_setparam             CT_setparam

would do the trick with most linkers.  It's nice to keep any prefix very
short, for readability.
