Another interesting idea is to write autoconfig stuff for Guile
extensions. SART could really use this - after all, if you're building
a package that uses guile, there's nothing wrong in assuming that
Guile is installed.
And I'd really like to be able to output a .c file generated from
Scheme, turn it into a shared lib and then load the library into Guile
with a single procedure (or macro).
