Using WPIlib with Acroname R117 Compass?

Hi,
I don't think we received a gyro with our FRC 2010 kit, but we did receive an Acroname R117 compass. Unfortunately, there is no method in the WPIlib to access the R117 compass. We're trying to get the Hitech Compass class to read the R117 compass, but it's not working.

The first problem was that the Hitech Compass routine has a verify manufacturer routine. Then we tried hacking out the verify manufacturer routine, but still we couldn't get data from the R117.

Finally, we found an NXT Hitech compass from our FTC kit and he we hooked that up. Still, the HitechCompass class gave us a invalid manufacturer.

Anybody have any idea how we could rectify the situation?
