i agree. the way to stop the people that want to use c for everything is 
then of interest. one way is to do it with test design. the other is to 
have it as a requiement (do not use ffi).

the latter seems to be the easier road. if we go that way it could be a 
general rule, and for specifiq test it would be lifted. which i think is 
what mr brent fulgham is suggesting. imho.
