	Well in this case, we're not talking about sugar wrappers.
We're talking about the implementation of the interfaces ... which you
would have to re-write if you don't want to use bonoboui ... So, I
think for some things in bonobo you'll want to wrap the C library and
for other things (the pure sugar wrappers) you'll just use the CORBA
directly.

Good Luck,
Mark.
