It would not be urgent at the moment (being tied down with University
matters, start of semester, classes, meetings), if you can come up with
complete running programs eventually, that would be fine enough.

But maybe one question, not addressed by the suggested nutshell
examples: would it be possible to have different sets of external APIs
loaded, depending on the use-case (e.g. for BSF4Rexx the external
functions BSFLoadJava() and BSFUnloadJava() should not be available, if
invoked via Java). This seems to be implied via the "RexxPackageLoader
loader; // the package loader" entry in the RexxPackageEntry structure;
however, it would be very helpful to learn what would be necessary to
implement a RexxPackageLoader on the own, and what responsibilities one
would have to fulfill. But maybe there is an alternative means of
indicating which routines should be made available and which ones should
not at runtime. Again, there is no urgent need for this, just curiosity
(and a need once starting to adapt BSF4Rexx to the new APIs, before
extending it).
