Actually, the module declarations that come with Scheme 48 let you
create very small (if maybe not tiny) images. Admittedly, it's not
very well documented. But it's certainly not "quite an undertaking".
Bytecode itself is certainly not responsible for size (the opposite is
more probable), and the "big libraries" are mostly the development
environment.
