There is a whole document on it:

http://felix.sourceforge.net/doc/tutorial/embedding/en_flx_tut_bind_top.html

Hmm .. there are some typos in it .. 

It shows what Chris asked for: a binding to a C++ library ..
in the first example it is a single C++ class for
gaussian integers which is actually encoded directly in
the Felix program.

Unfortunately, the only 'standard' external library one can
assume is present is the C++ standard library. Showing the
natural wrapping for that is likely to conflict with the
encoding in the Felix standard library ;(

Yes, that's what I'm proposing.
