Heh, I didn't notice this part of the document. Integrating a C runtime
of a Java library sounds nightmarish -- I wouldn't even think about
that.
XQilla seems to depend on Xerces, and seems to have died in 2011.
Zorba appears to have been taken propietary, from the looks of its last
commits.
Maybe the best way forward is to implement all the JSON functionality
and remove the SQL/XML bits.
