Why would you want to make a non-swig version of the ESL lib?  The whole
point is to make sure you get a reliable client.
Everyone who tries to make their own runs into one of many challenges that
are hard to overcome in a script lang.  This is why you have the benefit of
the wrapped C lib.

xml_rpc has a bit less capability and is for sure less stable and scalable
when put head to head with ESL.
I wrote both of them myself so I'm not driven by affinity to one or the
other.  AFAIK xml_rpc is stable but the lib used is not so hot and I always
wanted to use something better.
