[jawsscripts] Owner-drawn list view items?

Hi all,

In the JAWS script documentation for lvGetItemText() there's a note that
says the function does not work for "owner-drawn items."
Does anyone know what this means? 
If an item is owner-drawn in a classic MFC-based app, how does one change
the list view so JAWS likes it?

Barring that what's the best way to script it to read the content?
Currently JAWS is not reading the list view, it does know what item number
has the focus, and the list view is keyboard accessible.
In fact, it would appear that the list view control is the standard Windows
one, with no customizing. So that's why I'm grasping at the "owner-drawn
item" straw.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
