I would say yes, but starting with GMT 4.5.13 and 5.1.2, i.e., in the near future (late summer/fall?). We just made some changes following your emails in order to separate out the GSHHG-specific structure definitions from the GMT context stuff. So now the gshhg.c tool in GMT includes gmt_gshhg.h which includes the revised gshhg.h (which is the fill you will want to use).
