It seems that there is already FFI::Raw, which are bindings to libffi: https://metacpan.org/module/FFI::Raw
You may be right, and I didn't say there was just one solution. I hadn't heard about the above one though, thanks for pointing it out.
That being said, unless they are ignorant of the above module as I was, the url I pointed to about Alien::Base has already gotten some responses including some more prominent people saying it may have a big impact, so maybe they know something I don't.
My main point, however, is that tools are becoming available to exist which may let DBD::SQLite be a much more lite wrapper. I make no strong judgements to their utility however, just something to look at.
