If you aren't nailed down on lisp but scheme would be an option for you, there's cyclone [1] which also has FFI and C ABI support iirc.

I Built a Lisp Compiler | Mar 2019

Same here, one of my long ongoing projects is a scheme compiler following the same ideas as chicken (https://www.call-cc.org/) and cyclone (https://github.com/justinethier/cyclone).

The compiler is written in rust which generates C (that's currently dependent on being compiled by GCC or Clang). https://github.com/nitros12/some-scheme-compiler

Not necessarily, it can be extended to support multithreading:
