Depending on what level of abstraction you need there's also
'functional postscript' (current release can be found at 
ftp://ftp-swiss.ai.mit.edu/pub/su/scsh/contrib/fps/fps-1.0.tar.gz).
I just spent some time 'porting' it to scheme (it was written
for scheme48. BTW, is there any good documentation on scheme48
besides what comes with the sources?), mainly as an exercise
in understanding how to port from one module system to another
so i can port the essence parser generator.
