Another idea... what about starting from http://github.com/ffi and replacing
the C extension with C# code?
Not sure if it will work but it's at least worth looking at. Or perhaps you can
also look at what JRuby is doing.

It would be easier to write the core implementation as regular C# library (i.e.
not IronRuby.Libraries.*) and write the public API in Ruby that would
internally call to that library.
The Ruby file could call load_assembly 'CoreFFI.dll' and then use the classes
defined there.
This way you don't
Alright, I have a hankering again to port Ruby FFI ;).
One question: should the port be written in pure Ruby, or should this be a
C# library in the same vein as YAML (IronRuby.Libraries.Yaml)? I was
leaning towards the latter, where I would branch from IronLanguages/Main,
adding a *Libraries.FFI*
