There is no consensus for a higher level FFI library.

I would like to help with bringing libraries like Posix (or better
Single UNIX Specification because Posix is not freely available)
to use a "standard" FFI. But:

* I disagree with a few interface decisions, but certainly don't want
  to force my view against others or unnecessarily break compatibility.

* There is no consensus for a higher level FFI library. Again I have
  my own evolving proposal, but it's not something that has been
  agreed to use.
