Well, not exactly (if the meaning of FFI is: a way to call foreign
functions).  Julia Base has the @ccall macro for calling C functions.

Library_jll.jl is a standard naming for a wrapper for a specific library,
and it is usually generated by the package JLLWrappers.jl

JLL stands for DLL (dynamic link library) with the D replaced with
Julia's J, so you know that by installing a _jll package you are not
installing a pure Julia package, but a package with some binary
dependencies.

Thanks!

No problem, I'll prepare next set of Julia patches then :)

Thanks, Nicolò
