Quoting Kalle Valo:

So you just need a very small program that calls this, then sleeps
forever, I'd assume (maybe it needs an exit handler, I don't know).  I
can't install Scratchbox to develop for ITOS2006 on my machine here,
so maybe someone else can compile that and try it.

Hmm, is there a way to call osso_* functions from Perl?
