I haven't looked at those FFIs, but I have seen the C API for Obj-C reflection. It it too early for me to tell what the best solution will be for interfacing Obj-C APIs. I will only be programming full-screen OpenGL apps, so I don't need complete access to all of the views, nav bars, lists, etc. I don't plan on writing a full Obj-C to Scheme bridge, but maybe that will come eventually. For that, the reflection API does look good.

The ObjC reflection API is very good, but unfortunately Gambit-C does not support variadic C functions. And they are needed to send messages to objects. One option is using libffi, other is write specialised methods in an as-needed basis.
