I'll have to give Gerbil a second look. I've written some small programs with Chicken Scheme (which honestly should be in any practical scheme list IMO) and while the standard library is not that big (my pet peeve as well with most languages) I really liked a scheme I could statically compile into a binary. For my project I also wanted to have some untrusted user code execution sandbox, and found such libraries for both Chicken and Guile. While the later one had better/fine grained execution environment options, Chicken won because of the possibility to easily compile.

It's just that Gerbil and Racket have the most built in AFAICT.
