I'm pretty sure you still need to use P/Invoke if you want to do
native interop on Mono.

I'm not sure what you mean by "just" but once you have something like this
https://github.com/jsimmons/LuaSharp/blob/master/LuaWrap/LuaLib.cs (5.1)
you can do whatever you like and have it run on all platforms. More
automated things obviously require more magical stuff on the part of
the C# library.
