Sean,

I'm pretty sure you can already do this, I know I tried it at some point
with success.  Generally, I mix other C stuff (like intrinsic AltiVec
instructions) in with the calls, so I write a wrapper function.  But that's
not required.  If you pass the data to and from the various frameworks
correctly, it should work great.
