i've managed to compile and run chibi without float support. i had to talk to the author and fix a few things but the HEAD pretty much compiles and runs. my problem with chibi is that once i've flashed the firmwares and the devices are sent out, then an FFI bug is a real headache. chicken seems to be more mature on this front. (i'm planning to have a small bootstrap C code that downloads and runs signed scheme files from the net) BTW, is there dynamic FFI in chicken? one that doesn't require C code, but relies on runtime symbol lookup?
