Python does not work in the Chicken interpreter either. :-) (Though in
principle one could write a Python egg using the Python/C API.)
But Python's FFI is accessible from the CPython interpreter, since there
is no other (commonly used) interface to CPython.
Chicken is primarily a compiled Scheme: the interpreter is slow
and inefficient, and provided mostly for testing, debugging, and
simple scripting. If you are interested in interpreter-based Schemes
exclusively, I recommend Chibi Scheme.
