Status update for those interested:

The linux version is running as far as I can test it.  Not very far
probably, but I have simple libc samples working including callbacks
with printf, time, and the qsort functions.  This uses libffi.

Now I'm implementing (read hacking) libffi to work under Windows so
that I don't have to use other code here.
