To the best of my experience, calling the vcvars bat file prior to getting into Gambit (or at least, prior to any Visual C compiler executable invocation) is vital to Gambit C file compilation success when using VC, as well as for the compilation of pretty much any other C file too btw.
Why do you use misc/vs2008.bat, doesn't the Gambit-VC binary distro use CL appropriately in gambc-cc.bat as used by |compile-file| already?
(As of currently I'm unaware of what misc/vs2008.bat is for, if you are please feel free to share.)
Generally the Mingw Gambit distro gives you a smoother experience, if it's good for your needs (which it ought to, I suppose), you can consider it.

After removing call "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio
9.0\VC\bin\vcvars32.bat", calling misc/vs2008.bat in gambc-v4_6_6 sources
