have you thought of wrapping rlib with SWIG http://www.swig.org/

That would give you library capability from:

Tcl 8.0 and newer versions.=20
Python 1.5 and newer.=20
Perl 5.003 or newer.=20
Guile 1.3.4 and newer.
Java JDK 1.1 and newer.=20
Ruby.=20
Mzscheme.

and it's super easy give that you have a C api.
