We already have such a case: capstone and python-capstone. There is no
redundancy since python-capstone knows how to load the shared library
created in the capstone package. So we have two packages, with the same
build time as with one package, but much easier to create. The only
difficulty is to make the binding find the library (but the same would
be true for different outputs I guess).
