[racket-dev] raco make cannot marshal value error

Hi,

i have the following two files, one that only requires the other and
calls a macro and the other one that defines that macro:

=== main.rkt
#lang racket

(require "err.rkt")
(a)

=== err.rkt
#lang racket

(begin-for-syntax
  (struct s (arg) #:transparent)

  (define (fun arg)
    (printf "arg: ~a\n" arg)))

(define-syntax (a stx)
   (syntax-case stx ()
     [(_)
      (with-syntax ([v #`#,(s 123)])
        #'(begin
            (begin-for-syntax
             (fun v))))]))

(provide a)

When executing 'racket main.rkt' directly i get the expected output
arg: #(struct:s 123)
but when i try to call 'raco make main.rkt' instead, i get this strange
error:

arg: #(struct:s 123)
write: cannot marshal value that is embedded in compiled code
   value: (s 123)

    /home_local/hamm_to/racket/racket-5.3.0.16/collects/raco/main.rkt:  
[running body]

I think i need a little help to understand what is happening here
and what i am doing wrong. I had expected that running and compiling
works on the same set of programs.

Thanks for any clarification.

Tobias
