Guile is a scheme derivitive. There are plenty of unencumbered schemes.

The "convert this or that language into Guile" business is a red herring.
The way people tend to use interactive interpreters, you always end up
coding in the native language anyway.

There's STk and four other scheme's in ports/lang already. What does Guile
give us that any other scheme wouldn't?
