To be fair, most Scheme implementations come with one, and you can always
download an external one if you want.

Again, depends on the implementation. Gambit offers CL-style macros too.

Depends on the implementation. Bigloo did a bit better on the Great Computer
Language Shootout than did CMUCL, though, there were complaints that the
CL-code was sub-par. In the few small benchmarks I've tried on my machine,
Bigloo is pretty competitive with CMUCL.
