There's MacScheme.  I've heard it was pretty good.  There was a review
in one of the magazines about a year ago.  I'd guess it was MacWorld,
but could have been MacUser or MacTutor (sorry I don't remember).  One
nice advantage, I beleive that it would generate native code.  If you
could do with Common Lisp, I'd recommend Allegro.
