[plt-scheme] Porting DrScheme/MzScheme to Adobe Flex

I'm not talking about taking a Scheme program and compiling it down to  
JavaScript or some other language. What I'm proposing is porting the  
whole DrScheme IDE, including the MzScheme interpreter and VM, over to  
ActionScript.

MzScheme is written in C, correct? Is there some feature of C that has  
no implementable counterpart in ActionScript? (Besides pointer and  
memory corruption. :)
