You could try Scheme->C which compiles Revised**3 Scheme to C that is
then compiled by the native C compiler for the target machine.  This design
results in a portable system that allows either stand-alone Scheme programs or
programs written in both compiled and interpreted Scheme and other
languages.

The system is available for anonymous ftp from 'gatekeeper.dec.com'
[16.1.0.2]. The Scheme->C files are in '/pub/DEC/Scheme-to-C'.  Those
files include:

        23feb90.tar.Z           initial release, supports VAX and DECstations
