Is it possible to call Sather from guile? anyone tried to do it?

What I am afraid is that both languages use garbage collectors,
and different ones. Because I do not know much about how GC works 
I am just afraid to try. You know, it works nice 99 times, and
than crashes and burns. Also, flow of control in scheme may
be very strange --- there are special warnings about it in Guile
manual and I do not  know how Sather may react to it if
it allocates and deallocates memory all the time.

It would be so nice to write new functions in something better
then C.
