[Not pertinent to the issue, but...  Please do

   #define FT_FONT_FORMAT_GF       "GF"

 (in `svfntfmt.h' to get uppercase font format name.)]

This looks correct.  What problem do you have?  What does

  FT2_DEBUG=any:7 ftview ...

say?  If you don't get meaningful debug output from the GF and TFM
drivers, you obviously haven't added enough FT_TRACE[0-9] calls :-)
