It is really more or less the same... you still must call gh_enter,
and go into a function.  So, to include guile in things like Apache,
you would have to totally canabalize it.  I personally would suggest
Python or Tcl, if you don't have control over the whole app (like
apache).  This hopefully will be changing soon, but I don't know what
the status is.  I think the key problems have been identified, and a
solution is being worked on.  Jim has a very good idea of where Guile
is going, and, IMO, a lot of good, solid, practical ideas about how to
get it there.
