It might also be worth looking at the Microsoft version of CoreFoundation.  
They ported SwiftFoundation, which is permissively licensed, and replaced their 
earlier approach that wrapped Objective-C in C (as CoreBase does).  I’ve not 
looked at the code, but when I was in Redmond a couple of weeks ago the 
Islandwood team were much happier with their new version than the old.
