I'm not quite sure what do you have as code to create the executable?
Is it a module?
I don't know about creating executable directly through DrScheme but
if you use mzc --exe ... you need to be compiling a module and not
just a require line.

(I'm sorry, at the moment I cannot test your problem since I'm
struggling to make DrScheme work under xorg 7)
