Interesting, one of the reasons I use Scheme over Common Lisp is that doing this in CL is not common or easy.

Scheme has few options to generate C code and it's so simple that I can write my own transpiler in no time.

ECL is typically used for integration into C. CLASP is a derivative for deep integration with C++. There are a bunch of other to C transpilers, some are in-house. For example PTC's large Creo Design CAD system uses an in-house maintained Common Lisp to C compiler.
