...usually you just send a message to gldefine, kinda like this:

[GL_LINE_LOOP<
|
[GLdefine]

...and then connect that GLdefine to whatever inlet can use a 
GL_LINE_LOOP...This stuff shouldn't be hard to fool with if you have a 
copy of the "red book" around...

...try examples/09.OpenGL/01.primQuad.pd...it's the only gl wrapper 
example atm, but you could also look at the shapeSynth abstractions, 
which I'll add to the cvs abstractions before the end of the day...
