I take it the 64-bit build works, then? :)

The optimization options for Chicken on OS X are pretty conservative:
only -Os -fomit-frame-pointer.  Your options are probably better.
But, I noticed you didn't add -m64 to your C++ compile to activate
64-bit mode, which adds a bunch of extra CPU registers as well.
