It would have the same limitations as OCaml, obviously: interactive in
bytecode only (this has long been one of my biggest gripes about OCaml,
actually). FWIW, I don't think writing a Scheme-to-OCaml compiler is a
very useful waste of one's time, just that it should be about as easy as
writing an interpreter for Scheme in OCaml.

Oleg
