The reason I was inquiring into the PLT versioning scheme was that I would like
to help with the PLT Scheme development. Due to time limitations and my
relatively little experience in Scheme (but 7+years of C/C++ development counts
towards my credit:-) I cannot commit to any specific subproject (for now at
least) but I am thinking along the lines of improving MzScheme interface to Unix
system calls and library functions (no porting scsh, sorry:-) as well as some
bug fixes.

In this regard, is there any tool available which (like SWIG) can generate glue
code for a C/C++ library to be linked into MzSheme? I found a tool from PLT
called 'xcctocc' which supposedly does exactly that. But it is for MzScheme v53
and it seems nowhere to be found in v101.

thanks,
