Yes. Build a scheme interpreter into the CM system itself, and use that as a
common runtime across platforms. Fetch the programs from the CM system
rather than the file system.
In this way, the programs will run on any platform where the CM system runs,
and if you can't get the CM system running methinks you have bigger worries
than getting the ancillary checkin/checkout programs to run.
