I thought the same. But I also read in glibc that that the init and destroy would free and alloc exactly so that you don't have to do it. In fact, the structure is known to be opaque. I cannot rely in what I see in internet since each os may have a different. And I cant get the size of it from ffi so I cannot allocate accurately. I think I am screw. I don't want to go to plugin side grrr .. And osx does work. I think I will try against glibc rather than libc.
