Guile needs a facility to build such things itself, no doubt.
Ultimately, it needs to be a shared library--whether part of guile
directly or not, depending on how sophisticated the guile foreign
function interface is (something I'm not up-to-speed about).
The answer to your question is: Scheme is a convenient and pleasing
language. Why implement things in a suckier language when you can do
it in Scheme?!
