The interface should be specified at standard C level (as more-or-less
everything can interface with that) but we should consider SDK support for
other popular development environments (Delphi from a "today" point of
view, Java/ObjectiveC/C# from a "tomorrow" point of view depending on how
compilers and processor speeds develop and what platforms GMPI finds
itself on).

I agree. I was thinking we could even define the whatever calling
convention we use (say, cdecl) at the machine level, ie, caller pushes each
argument widened to 64 bits, and caller is responsible for fixing up the
stack upon return. That way other languages could be supported by an
assembly language thunking layer.
