Some thought after testing your last commit :

-compiles ok on Os X with scons

-works here rather nicely with meshes up to 500 K. such a mesh is
  unusable in edit mode but works correctly in sculpt mode (a bit  
slow but
  ok).
this is already much better than i was expecting from your wiki comments

- i could not get sculpting took works with subsurf or any modifier

- we need for sculpt mode a special lighting.. the standard OGL  
solid  lighting
  dont show enough relief

- the add brush & smooth tool work very well. the sub brush and pinch  
tools
are a bit unpredictable

- for the brush size setting, imho the best solution would be to use  
the scroll
weel while left button is down

- btw there is a problem here left button draw is needed because most  
pens
wont have right one, but then you cant position the 3D cursor


will look at the code more closely this evening
