I should be able to support the same callback mechanism as
WIN32 Euphoria provides, i.e. C routines in shared libraries
(DLLs) will be able to call Euphoria routines, given the
callback address.

Inter-language calls are a bit tricky, and I haven't worked out
all the details yet for Linux. I need to do some research
and write a bit of machine code, so I'll leave it for the
second Linux release.
