I don't know. Unless the installer drags a C toolchain as a runtime
dependency, I don't see how it would make CHICKEN more interesting on
Windows for developers (unless you consider "csi runs" satisfying
enough).
CHICKEN is primarily a compiler. It compiles to C. So, for any
practical use of CHICKEN (as a developer, I mean) you need a C
toolchain. If you have a C toolchain, why not build CHICKEN itself?
It's pretty simple and lightweight on requirements. Besides GNU Make,
you don't need anything else you'd need to install an egg or to compile
a "hello-world"-style program in Scheme.
Best wishes.
Mario
