It's often necessary to tweak header files to some degree before bind
can handle them, since it's not a general-purpose C processor. This
usually means at least stripping preprocessor noise (some of which will
go unevaluated), since that can confuse further parsing.

Attached is a diff against that mosquitto.h file you linked which allows
chicken-bind to work, and the resulting mosquitto.scm file.

Hope that helps,

Evan
