I tried to port it, but ran into hard to debug (but possibly not overly
dramatic) problems. Then I ran out of time for working more on it.

It would be more worthwhile to write a CLOS-style object system
from scratch - the chicken port was tuned so heavily (with too little
result, alas), that it is too complex and very hard to understand.
