I can vouch that the FFI implementation itself is nicely done, flexible
and robust.

I have used the FFI to do a bit of binding to libusb for USB device
listing and status, as well as a near complete binding to the IBM MQ CLI
client library[1] and a number of miscellaneous Linux O/S apis.  

[1] The MQ stuff was tragically lost on an office to home repository
migration. I still have nightmares about that little incident.
