Hello Andy,

No, and currently that would not be possible, as Open-CV is written in
C++ and there no ffi for C++ code ... They used to have and maintain a
C api, up to 2.xx (not sure up to what exact version), then dropped
support for the C api.

This is why - not the only reason, but a major factor in my decision -
I choose to bind and extend Guile-CV [1] using Vigra [2], but now Vigra
seems unmaintained :(

You also might look at aiscm [3], and other projects that might interest
you, to my knowledge, the most up-to-date guile projects list is here
[4].

	it actually is because someone was maintaining a Vigra C lib
	that I could use Vigra in Guile-CV, as Vigra is also written in
	C++
