Bad docs and brittle build expectations make C to C "ffi" tricky as well. But it's realistically how this kind of programming, generally speaking, tends to happen. I don't expect we'll have a great end to end solution until there are language agnostic build and dependency management systems available. As much as I like cargo, I don't expect porting everything to cargo will cut it. At least not in its current form.
