Which one(s) in particular?
If there are some libXYZ subdirectories included, the question would be
whether it really makes sense to include them, as they are probably a
snapshot of an existing project (and in turn are quickly out-dated) and
whether it would make sense to "re-invent the wheel" by re-writing those
in ObjC. In most cases, it won't be worth the time.
