i wouldn't go the way to wrap all DFB APIs but instead implement a
higher level GUI on the coproc and do a narrow (client server) API
between host and coproc. this works of course only if you have a custum
application and will not work with unmodified DFB apps. if i weouldn't
have my own implementation already i would look at the Evas Canvas.

good luck!
