That's a different issue. It's a question of trading a dependency on gcc
(or another C compiler) for a dependency on llvm.
(And I guess most sizable Scheme/Gambit based projects need a C compiler
anyway to compile bindings to C libraries; so it would only matter for a
target audience which *does* program in Scheme but *only* uses
precompiled binary modules for C bindings.)
