As far as the state of R6 on Gambit, it works great but the system is still rough. I've not only exposed Gambit's extensions as libraries, but I'm also able to create my own libraries, including libraries that use Gambit's ffi. There still plenty to do so if any of you are interested in hacking on it let me know. I plan on making an update to the tarball in a couple of days.
One of the problems I have with these systems (including the modules produced by the orignal portable syntax-case) is that they produce mutable bindings for module/library exported identifiers.
This kills block declarations and associated optimizations. Ideally, the module system shouldn't expand to core scheme, but rather to gambit's core forms.
