cffi-grovel is a good home for this new functionality, as it nicely complements
the groveller's functionality for building helper libraries. Perhaps a separate
system (even if it's included in the CFFI repo) would make sense too since
the two functionalities are orthogonal, AFAICT.
I don't fully see the repercussions of extracting c-toolchain and
static-link out off cffi-grovel. If it's easy and you think it's a
good idea, then please go ahead. In any case, as I mentioned in the
pull request, I think User Manual documentation and tests have higher
priority at this point.
Cheers,
