I second Christian on this one as you will be using dune-istl as a library only. (What Andreas describes is something
totally different. That might happen if you start copying code to another repository and modify it there.)

Of course it might make a lot of sense, to add the C-binding directly to dune-istl via a merge request. These might be turn
out useful for other peoples, too. Let's help them. IMHO that is also the cleanest approach considering software maintenance
and you might find help more easily.

As I am one of the main developers of the code, I would be very happy if you would share, what solvers of dune-istl you will be using
and what made you choose it.

Cheers,

Markus
