[racket-dev] Installing Optimization Coach broke Racket's reader

This worked:

~/plt/collects$ find . -name "compiled" -exec rm -rf \{\} \;
~/plt/collects$ ../bin/raco setup

That first command to delete the ghosts of misbegotten .zos is arcane 
and dangerous. Why would installing a package create compiled files in 
"collects"?
