Certainly that seems like a worthwhile path, but any compiler/library
that is chosen will need to be under a reasonable open source license.
We've already had one situation (chan_ooh323) where the ASN.1 compiler
used to generate the GPL-licensed C code was not itself open source,
which makes the C source code not very manageable for users who want to
modify it.
