   Factor is sort of a Lisp dialect that is garbage collected, I think.  So maybe   
   not great for embedded.  StrongForth, I thought, was like regular Forth but   
   with a type system.  That shouldn't be a problem unless there are other   
   issues.  Ada is strongly typed, and C++ is sort-of-strongly typed, and both   
   are used in embedded apps all the time.
