Hey, cool! Looks very good. Would it be possible to reuse posixunix.scm
(probably using some cond-expand's to conditionally compile certain
sections), or are the differences so large that a separate posix*.scm
is required?

A few more suggestions:

- don't use "//" style comments
- add "psp" to C_software_type (generally whatever is right
  for software-type, machine-type, build-platform, etc.)
