Ok, but then how will look the CNI functions if you want to store
Packet on a global native variable (or a queue, or whatever),
for example:

Packet *_global_variable;
NativeQueue::send(Packet *p) {
   _global_variable = p;
}
Packet *NativeQueue::receive() {
  return _global_variable;
}

since Packet is a wrapper-class, this won't work, right?
