I don't think this is a problem (a card driver is or could be implemented
as a separate library)

also we have (or had?) that generic load external driver interface so opensc

it should still work (although I must admit I didn't test it for quite some
time)

was initially designed to allow binary only drivers. these days I think the belpic way is better - copy opensc, rename opensc to foobar and add your
driver. open source everything except card-newdriver.c, but include the
*.o file (and specify which linux/compiler/... you used).

sorry but why is this approach better than supplying a binary driver ?
I think this is even worse as this will create unnecessary forks ...
