If you install the PLaneT package, you can search the docs in your Web 
browser from the local copy of the package.

In answer to your question "print-source" appears to be just a thunk 
that writes the desired C code to current-output.  For example:

#lang scheme
(require (planet dherman/c:3:1/eval))
(let-values (((stdin stdout)
              (gcc (lambda ()
                     (display "#include <stdio.h>\n")
                     (display "int main(int argc, char **argv) {\n")
                     (display "  (void)printf(\"(hello world)\");\n")
                     (display "}\n")))))
  (read stdin))
;; ==> (hello world)

One thing to note: it looks like currently you cannot supply custom 
command-line arguments to the "gcc" program using this "gcc" procedure.
