Sure; I was looking into integrating it, but found some problems.
I agree generating modules automatically is a good idea; the main
problem right now is that we cannot get the return type of the
functions, and this breaks functions returning a string.

They seem to work just fine for me, but I'm no Perl expert, so if you
think your approach is better I'll do it that way.
