My own thoughts:

1) Scribe doesn't run under Chicken, does it? If not, then it is sort
   of annoying to have to get Bigloo to compile Chicken's
   documentation...
2) Texinfo will produce plain text, html and formatted
   documentation. LaTeX won't do that conveniently.
3) I sort of prefer troff, but I'm a lunatic and it is unlikely others
   would agree with me.

Given all this, it seems Texinfo might be the right thing, at least
for the main manual. I still favor having calls documented with man
pages but that's another story.
