Hi Andy! Just a thought... Have you checked out the excellent MetaKit from Jean-Claude Wippler? It is quite powerful and popular in Tcl community. Now, it is not memory-resident (it requires file as backing store) and it has no SQL, but it has transaction capabilities, it is quite fast, allows you to change db-schema on the fly, it has useful locking (although I'm not sure if it has concurrent writers) and it has simple Tcl binding. I have never tried it under AS but it shouldn't be a major undertaking to get it up and running properly in MT-world.
