Eh, guys, RMS is not trying to create a universal scripting language.
He is trying to create a common intermediate form (based on scheme)
with a lot of different front ends, for use in GNU.  Thus, users of a
GNU tool will not be bound to one particular extension language. 

I don't know if this is possible or practical, but wish him luck.
