I did not understood your intention. Assuming that DLLs produced by MinGW gcc 
is not what you want you can try my https://github.com/bazurbat/chicken-scheme 
next branch which can produce Windows native DLLs using Visual Studio compiler 
with the help of CMake. Be careful though as this branch contains a lot of 
other experimental changes and not supported by the CHICKEN developers.

 TFP 2015 ===

  16th Symposium on Trends in Functional Programming
   June 3-5, 2015
   Inria Sophia Antipolis, France
  http://tfp2015.inria.fr/


The symposium on Trends in Functional Programming (TFP) is an
international forum for researchers with interests in all aspects of
functional programming, taking a broad view of current and future
trends in the area. It aspires to be a lively environment for
presenting the latest research results, and other contributions (see
below). Authors of draft papers will be invited to submit revised
papers based on the feedback receive at the symposium.  A
post-symposium refereeing process will then select a subset of these
articles for formal publication.

The selected revised papers will be published as a Springer Lecture
Notes in Computer Science (www.springer.com/lncs) volume.

TFP 2015 will be the main event of a pair of functional programming
events. TFP 2015 will be accompanied by the International Workshop on
Trends in Functional Programming in Education (TFPIE), which will take
place on June 2nd.

The TFP symposium is the heir of the successful series of Scottish
Functional Programming Workshops. Previous TFP symposia were held in
  * Edinburgh (Scotland) in 2003;
  * Munich (Germany) in 2004;
  * Tallinn (Estonia) in 2005;
  * Nottingham (UK) in 2006;
  * New York (USA) in 2007;
  * Nijmegen (The Netherlands) in 2008;
  * Komarno (Slovakia) in 2009;
  * Oklahoma (USA) in 2010;
  * Madrid (Spain) in 2011;
  * St. Andrews (UK) in 2012;
  * Provo (Utah, USA) in 2013;
  * and in Soesterberg (The Netherlands) in 2014.
For further general information about TFP please see the TFP homepage.
(http://www.tifp.org/).


== INVITED SPEAKER ==

TFP is pleased to announce a talk by the following invited speaker:

  * Laurence Rideau is a researcher at INRIA and is interested in the
semantics of programming languages , the formal methods, and the
verification tools for programs and mathematical proofs.  She
participated in the beginnings of the Compcert project (certified
compiler), and is part of the Component Mathematical team in the
MSR-INRIA joint laboratory, who performed the formalization of the
Feit-Thompson theorem successfully.

Thirty years ago, computers barged in mathematics with the famous
proof of the Four Color Theorem.  Initially limited to simple
calculation, their role is now expanding to the reasoning whose
complexity is beyond the capabilities of most humans, as the proof of
the classification of finite simple groups.  We present our large
collaborative adventure around the formalization of the Feit-Thompson
theorem (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feit%E2%80%93Thompson_theorem)
that is a first step to the classification of finite groups
and that uses a palette of methods and techniques that range from
formal logic to software (and mathematics) engineering.


== SCOPE ==

The symposium recognizes that new trends may arise through various
routes.  As part of the Symposium's focus on trends we therefore
identify the following five article categories. High-quality articles
are solicited in any of these categories:

Research Articles: leading-edge, previously unpublished research work
Position Articles: on what new trends should or should not be
Project Articles: descriptions of recently started new projects
Evaluation Articles: what lessons can be drawn from a finished project
Overview Articles: summarizing work with respect to a trendy subject

Articles must be original and not simultaneously submitted for
publication to any other forum. They may consider any aspect of
functional programming: theoretical, implementation-oriented, or
experience-oriented.  Applications of functional programming
techniques to other languages are also within the scope of the
symposium.

Topics suitable for the symposium include:

Functional programming and multicore/manycore computing
Functional programming in the cloud
High performance functional computing
Extra-functional (behavioural) properties of functional programs
Dependently typed functional programming
Validation and verification of functional programs
Debugging and profiling for functional languages
Functional programming in different application areas:
  security, mobility, telecommunications applications, embedded 
systems,

  global computing, grids, etc.
Interoperability with imperative programming languages
Novel memory management techniques
Program analysis and transformation techniques
Empirical performance studies
Abstract/virtual machines and compilers for functional languages

Scope
~

ICFP 2015 seeks original papers on the art and science of functional
programming.  Submissions are invited on all topics from principles to
practice, from foundations to features, and from abstraction to
application.  The scope includes all languages that encourage
functional programming, including both purely applicative and
imperative languages, as well as languages with objects, concurrency,
or parallelism.  Topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

* Language Design: concurrency, parallelism, and distribution; modules;
  components and composition; metaprogramming; type systems;
  interoperability; domain-specific languages; and relations to
  imperative, object-oriented, or logic programming.

* Implementation: abstract machines; virtual machines; interpretation;
  compilation; compile-time and run-time optimization; garbage
  collection and memory management; multi-threading; exploiting
  parallel hardware; interfaces to foreign functions, services,
  components, or low-level machine resources.

* Software-Development Techniques: algorithms and data structures;
  design patterns; specification; verification; validation; proof
  assistants; debugging; testing; tracing; profiling.

* Foundations: formal semantics; lambda calculus; rewriting; type
  theory; monads; continuations; control; state; effects; program
  verification; dependent types.

* Analysis and Transformation: control-flow; data-flow; abstract
  interpretation; partial evaluation; program calculation.

* Applications: symbolic computing; formal-methods tools; artificial
  intelligence; systems programming; distributed-systems and web
  programming; hardware design; databases; XML processing;
  scientific and numerical computing; graphical user interfaces;
  multimedia and 3D graphics programming; scripting; system
  administration; security.

* Education: teaching introductory programming; parallel programming;
  mathematical proof; algebra.

* Functional Pearls: elegant, instructive, and fun essays on
  functional programming.

* Experience Reports: short papers that provide evidence that
  functional programming really works or describe obstacles that have
  kept it from working.

If you are concerned about the appropriateness of some topic, do not
hesitate to contact the program chair.

Abbreviated instructions for authors


* By Friday, 27 February 2015, 23:59 UTC-11, submit a full paper of
  at most 12 pages (6 pages for an Experience Report) in standard ACM
  conference format, including bibliography, figures, and appendices.

The deadlines will be strictly enforced and papers exceeding the page
limits will be summarily rejected.

* Authors have the option to attach supplementary material to a
  submission, on the understanding that reviewers may choose not to
  look at it.

* Each submission must adhere to SIGPLAN's republication policy, as
  explained on the web at

  http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication

* Authors of resubmitted (but previously rejected) papers have the
  option to attach an annotated copy of the reviews of their previous
  submission(s), explaining how they have addressed these previous
  reviews in the present submission.  If a reviewer identifies
  him/herself as a reviewer of this previous submission and wishes to
  see how his/her comments have been addressed, the program chair will
  communicate to this reviewer the annotated copy of his/her previous
  review.  Otherwise, no reviewer will read the annotated copies of
  the previous reviews.

Overall, a submission will be evaluated according to its relevance,
correctness, significance, originality, and clarity.  It should
explain its contributions in both general and technical terms, clearly
identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is
significant, and comparing it with previous work.  The technical
content should be accessible to a broad audience.  Functional Pearls
and Experience Reports are separate categories of papers that need not
report original research results and must be marked as such at the
time of submission.  Detailed guidelines on both categories are on the
conference web site.

Proceedings will be published by ACM Press.  Authors of accepted
submissions will have a choice of one of three ways to manage their

CHICKEN 3.4.0 is very old.  We've switched to the major version 4 ~6
years ago.  The most recent release is 4.9.0.1, which you can find here:
http://code.call-cc.org/

Do you have any special reason to be using such an old CHICKEN?  If you
don't, I strongly suggest you to update to the latest release.

I'm not sure I understand your question.  Do you want to embed CHICKEN
into a C application as a dll?

Best wishes.
Mario
