DASSL is quite a complicated piece of software.  To properly
implement an ODE solver like that - actually I believe that does 
differential+algebraic equations too - we need things 
like nonlinear equation solvers, finite differencing, 
linear equation solvers, etc.

It is certainly possible to write an ODE solver for GSL
right now using Runge-Kutta or some other explicit method without
needing those things.
