[racket-dev] racket-5.2.900.1-20120725 read ill-formed code error ?

Definitely looks like a Racket bug (or really broken hardware/OS)...

If I start DrRacket 5.2.900.1-20120725 and load up the below file, the 
first few clicks on the Run button give the "ill-formed code error", and 
then, after trying the Run button for 10+ seconds, suddenly Run starts 
working.

#lang racket/base
(require (planet neil/html-template:1:=1))
(html-template (hr (@ (clear "all") (id "foo"))))

If I quit DrRacket and start it back up, the problem is reproducible.

Problem with background optimizing of some kind?

That's all I can spend on this right now; hopefully other people can 
reproduce based on this info.
