Sorry I did not mean to discredit anyone. I just noticed once before on your site under software autoffi or some such.

Yeah, I worked on it. So did Jeremie and Christian, and a few others.
I wrote "autoffi" which is just a prototype which tries to use SILex
to parse C code. This code isn't maintained but hopefully still
works. Pulling out definitions should be achievable.

Jeremie wrote a different program which I think used SWIG to parse C code.

Pulling out definitions is probably the easiest job for automatic FFI
generation. Hopefully you can get something to work from either of
these projects.
