You can also just put the declarations of the functions and enums that
you desire in a foreign-parse section (or use chicken-wrap). I usually
list the declarations of what I need and let easyffi create the bindings.

I couldn't say, really. Eggs that wrap relatively straightforwardly using
easyffi are opengl, openal, glut, for example.
