The only thing I see in the manual is `scm_assert_foreign_object_type`.

For something equivalent in scheme, I guess you could do something like:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
(define (foreign? obj)
  (not (or (number? obj)
           (string? obj)
           (null? obj)
           ;; and so on..
           )))
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I agree that such predicate should be part of the buitlin API.
