If you read Bernstein's retrospective on qmail, one of his suggestions is to write code in a higher level language (especially more secure in the sense that C isn't such as preventing buffer & integer overflows etc) that is then transcoded to C. (Some conspiracy theorists looking at his code claimed he actually did do this :-) So in theory given unlimited CPU and memory it should be possible to take the SQLite C code and turn it into something higher level and then turn that back into the more verbose platforms (.NET, Java). The big advantage of this approach (after the upfront work) is that keeping up with SQLite progress is easy.
