GUILE is just a glorified ubiquitious garbage collector, nothing more.

A scheme implementation is nothing more than a type system + evaluator
+ gc.  If you don't like guile, just plug one of the other scheme
implementations into your application.  

Ehm, just look at qscheme, which has a nice and simple gc.  It's just
that I don't like bloatware. :)
