Apologies if I missed this from an earlier message or thread, but:
What feature or aspect of scmutils means it will need to be
implemented as a Racket language?
AFAIK MIT Scheme doesn't have anything like #lang, so I'm surprised.
I recall some mention of scmutils using MIT Scheme application hooks.
But AFAICT this is equivalent to Racket's `prop:procedure`. That is,
you can can define `struct`s that are applicable like procedures. On a
shallow read, it even looks like prop:procedure has both variants of
MIT Schemes' application hooks ("apply hooks" and "entities")?
So: If one reason for doing a lang was to define your own #%app -- you
probably don't need to.
Is there something else?

That would probably help a lot!
