Have you considered the 'rdyncall' package as an alternative for wrapping an existing C library?
I have no personal experience but it looks extremely interesting, especially considering the list
of libraries, some quite large, which have been successfully ported, as described in:

If you do try it, I'd be interested in knowing what you think.
