After several issues with Python, Lisp, Haskell, etc., I'm coming around to the philosophy of just generating C or C++ code from Python or Lisp.
Productivity is a function of (familiarity, language, libraries, configuration, runtime). Other languages may be great due to (language, library), but configuration can be a show-stopper. Especially since most devs seem to see library/wrapper writing as a chance to pull in all their favourite cruft dependencies.
