What's wrong with TCL?

It's a logical, structured, simple language, which is proven to work as both
a general scripting language as well as an embedded language for use as a
configuration- and/or extenstion language.

Can you simply link-in some Python library, add your C functions to a table,
and have the library interpret whichever file you wish, calling your C
functions if necessary? Because that's what is needed with a configuration
language.

PostgreSQL using TCL as their embedded language has a reason, you know :)

Alternative would be to grab Zend (the new PHP script engine) and write our
own language, but I guess that'd be a bit overkill.
