Hi Noha,
very clean code indeed, nice work, (mine rtl compiler is much more a bit of
a hack btw :-))
One thing to think about from the beginning is how to protect variables
from gc and at the same time
offer unreachable vars to be gc:d at an early state. In guile-2.0 we kept
using a stack for e.g

About two weeks ago, I emailed "Phil", who had shown some interest in
hacking guile lua a while back. I still haven't heard back from him, nor
has that branch been touched in 18 months, so I think we can safely say
we need a new maintainer for it.
