IMO,

GFX_VTABLE *al_vtable = create_gfx_vtable();
register_gfx_vtable_1_0(al_vtable, "init", 1.0. my_init);
register_gfx_vtable_1_0(al_vtable, "exit", 1.0. my_exit);
register_gfx_vtable_1_0(al_vtable, "vsync", 1.0. my_vsync);

would look even cleaner. Or is there an advantage of using static
arrays?
