Has anyone considered Scheme48? It is completely scalable, and 
implementing your own language (keyword, tokens or otherwise) is 
extremely simple. It is a virtual machine based intrepreter/compiler and 
you can have as small or as big of an implementation as you need. It was 
developed for embedded purposes, namely robotic control. There is also 
(albeit big) implementation as an extended shell.
