The `___CONS` macro is meant to be used in C code generated by the gsc compiler (it does the allocation in an optimized way, it allocates a movable object and does not include the check for heap overflow).
You want to call `___make_pair` to allocate a still object with `___EXT(___make_pair) (___ps, x_scmobj, y_scmobj)` and you need to check for heap overflow explicitly with `___FIXNUMP(result)`.
For a full example, look at the definition of `STRINGS_to_SCMOBJ` in the Gambit manual (page 237).

You are using the `___U8VECTORLENGTH` macro and friends incorrectly. They return a fixnum but your `c-lambda`s return `size_t`… so you want to say `___INT(___U8VECTORLENGTH(___arg1))` which converts the fixnum to an `int`, or use `scheme-object` instead of `size_t` as the return type of the `c-lambda`s.
Thanks! I didn't notice the fixnum tagging.
How does one build lists in a c-lambda? This:
(pp ((c-lambda () scheme-object "___return(___CONS(___FIX(1), ___CONS(FIX(2), ___NUL)));")))
gives errors about:
