After Bill created S7 that allowed true emdedding into C/C++ I didnt see any reason to keep supporting the other schemes since S7 also has terrific built in, lowlevel audio support. At this point I would only recommend using S7 as the scheme.  

Even so this might be off-topic, s7 is a terrific (and fun to use)
scheme.

Yes, a lot of the build setup can be (and needs to be) simplified. We
know have asdf and uiop. And Orm did find some serious bug in the
process/loop implementation.
