I am not even using callbacks for begin and end.  I'm just passing the
raw gl routines.  Combine callback and tessError are my only two
custom callbacks.

	gluTessCallback( _tessPtr, GLU_TESS_BEGIN, ( GLvoid( * )
( ... ) )glBegin );
	gluTessCallback( _tessPtr, GLU_TESS_END, ( GLvoid( * )
( ... ) )glEnd );
	gluTessCallback( _tessPtr, GLU_TESS_VERTEX, ( GLvoid( * )
( ... ) )glVertex3fv );
	gluTessCallback( _tessPtr, GLU_TESS_COMBINE, ( GLvoid( * )
( ... ) )combineCallback );
	gluTessCallback( _tessPtr, GLU_TESS_ERROR, ( GLvoid( * )
( ... ) )tessError );

same code for linux ****t:
	gluTessCallback( _tessPtr, GLU_TESS_BEGIN, ( void( * )() )glBegin );
	gluTessCallback( _tessPtr, GLU_TESS_END, ( void( * )() )glEnd );
	gluTessCallback( _tessPtr, GLU_TESS_VERTEX, ( void( * )
() )glVertex3fv );
	gluTessCallback( _tessPtr, GLU_TESS_COMBINE, ( void( * )
() )combineCallback );
	gluTessCallback( _tessPtr, GLU_TESS_ERROR, ( void( * )
() )tessError );
