You can look at the MzCOM code for an example.  It's for
Windows, and contains some COM goop, but basically it's
just an embedded MzScheme.

Probably you should look at the latest CVS version.  Look
at http://www.cs.utah.edu/plt/anoncvs/.  The MzCOM sources
are in plt/src/mzcom/, and the file of interest is
mzobj.cxx.

Also, there are basic embedding instructions in the Inside PLT MzScheme
manual.
