Compiling to native code.

The other thing is it is currently not possible to compile Gestalt to
.NET, as the ePOSIX library which it depends upon does not yet compile
to .NET.

Which means only gexslt could be compiled. As this means no HTTP
access, I don't think anyone would be interested.

So only a COM object would work right now.
