cffi-grovel is a good home for this new functionality, as it nicely complements the groveller's functionality for building helper libraries. Perhaps a separate system (even if it's included in the CFFI repo) would make sense too since the two functionalities are orthogonal, AFAICT. I don't fully see the repercussions of extracting c-toolchain and static-link out off cffi-grovel. If it's easy and you think it's a good idea, then please go ahead. In any case, as I mentioned in the pull request, I think User Manual documentation and tests have higher priority at this point. Cheers, -- Luís Oliveira http://kerno.org/~luis/
