I should have been clearer.  I meant passing pointers between non-C
languages is likely not possible.

We also suffer this problem in reverse: passing a pointer between two
C libraries is not possible in another non-C language.  eg.  Passing a
libvirt virDomainPtr from (Perl) Sys::Virt to Sys::Guestfs.
