I have no real idea because I don't know the internal structure of DAR.

But I think there are two ways to do it.
One is to make dar's own platform abstract layer.
The other is to use a existing library, for example
Apache Portable Runtime(APR).

The first way is to take much time.
The second way is to solve a licence problem if the library's
licence is not GPL or LGPL.
