I think with security-related software in particular, the proper answer there is "tough". If you can't figure out how to call a C function, you should probably just not write critical software.

One of the important lessons that the profession has yet to fully internalize is that there is very little software that is NOT security-related.
It's very, very difficult to get product managers to internalize that there are real security restrictions on how they can enable users to make things pretty.

Almost everything is security-related. Almost nobody is willing to work with this.
