Nope, your use case was interesting :) Though with 3.x firmwares,
Apple provides an API to access the phone music database so maybe you
don't need to fight with libgpod? SysInfoExtended on the iphone can be
found in /System/Library/Lockdown/Checkpoint.xml (on jailbroken
devices), dunno if in your usecase you can get access to it.
fwiw, I'd like itdb_parse_file to die but it's still in use by gtkpod.
And the Itdb_Device struct will probably need some rework at some
point.

Thanks for the thorough explanations of what you are trying to achieve :)
