Two problems here:

a. That stuff isn't in the language definition (consider a non-hosted
   implementation). You can have C without malloc. You can't have Scheme
   without closures.

b. Where do you get the jump table/lookup table/etc...? There's an
   interpreter in printf, and probably elsewhere, but not at the level
   of things like malloc.
