omegahat/Rffi: Interface to libffi to dynamically invoke arbitrary compiled routines at run-time without compiled bindings

This package allows one to use libffi to invoke compiled routines that are dynamically loaded into R but for which there are no explicitly compiled bindings. This package is both an interface to functionality in the libffi library, and also an additional layer of R classes and functionality for run-time interaction with native/compiled code. Byron Ellis did some work on this several years ago.
