Plays well with others.

The FO implementation of Dylan in particular takes great pains to
produce well-behaved "native" app.s.  Both GD and FO Dylan have C
FFI's.  FO Dylan also has mature interoperability features for Corba
and OLE/COM/ActiveX.

Squeak, and Smalltalk in general, is great, but, as far as I could
tell when I last looked at it, tends to assume a mostly closed,
Smalltalk-centric world.
