It's a common enough strategy. Wolfgang Oertl's LuaGnome builds the
bindings by converting the GTK+ headers to XML using gccxml.  The
functions then get converted to a big lookup table and he then uses
libffi for the actual dispatch. Some functions require special
treatment, but most of it is automated.
