I've pushed changes to make the Racket runtime system at least compile
as a framework for iOS (as it does already for Android). Build with
something like

  ../configure --host=armv7-apple-darwin \
               --enable-ios=iPhoneOS \
               --enable-racket=racket

or

  ../configure --host=x86_64-apple-darwin \
               --enable-ios=iPhoneSimulator \
               --enable-racket=racket

See "racket/src/README" for more information.
