There is a way to do it, but it’s probably not a very good idea. One could write a small native program around the library (an executable for your system, that is). Then, you could use the php system() function to call that program. Then, read the output you need (if any) off the standard output?
(there may be a better way, I’m not super-familliar with PHP, but at least this should work.)
