	I have noticed that the apparmor utils are written exclusively in perl
(sometimes this makes me very sad). I am working on a basic lib in C++
that will re-implement many of the functions that the apparmor tools
carry out. I am not doing this because the current tools aren't good
enough, I just wanted a cleaner api than calling them directly and
parsing the output. 
	I am coming to a wall with the profile generation and log parsing. I
don't want to have to try and reproduce all of the great work that has
gone into the current code, but I am faced again with not wanting the
messy solution of calling logprof and parsing its output. This can be
done and would be somewhat reliable, but I would much prefer to work
with a log parser library. 
	If anyone has had any luck interfacing SubDomain.pl(or pearl in
general) with C++, a C/C++ lib that will help, any links, or suggestions
at all please let me know.
