You can compile a native program. Not one that requires the JVM. And it also interops with a number of more native graphical tools (as opposed to having other use things that require/work-from java). To those coming to this thread who might not be familiar with Clojure: Clojure already can sit on top of javascript (as Clojurescript) and there was work making it work on top of, if I recall right, some of the C languages. But those latter ones don't seem to be anywhere near the capabilities of this project.
