Hi,

I understand guile currently does not support this based on
looking at the code (libguile/numbers.c) and the documentation;
however, has anyone here written patches to convert SCM integers
to C99 types: scm_num2int32(), scm_num2uint8() ?

Does anyone know of a project that manages in using C99 integer
types internally in the C code and convert between SCM integers
and the C99 types portably?

One of the less attractive ideas is to convert from an SCM
integer to a string, and then sscanf() it into a C99 integer
type.
