If it makes sense to write translators in Perl or Ruby, it makes
sense to write them in Scheme.  I only wonder whether it will run
fast enough to be useful.

Last time i ran a scheme (little) program from GNU/Hurd, the
speed was very good. I don't think it'd be too much of
a concern. And since we are using Guile, it'd be easy to combine
the code with critical C code.
