FWIW, nanopb is a lightweight (read: targeted at embedded devices) C library 
that is compatible with protobuf.

I didn't know Cap’n Proto so far but I have been wondering about using
Protocol Buffers already as well. We'd have to add another dependency
but it would make this stuff quite a bit less cumbersome. Do you know
if their C version is well maintained? It looks rather old compared to
the standard protobuf distribution. Does Cap'n Proto have a C API?
