[plt-scheme] Combining scheme/serialize, structures, and macros?

The problem is that `identifier-binding' is relative to the module
currently being expanded. But `scheme/serialize' needs an
`identifer-binding' that is relative to the enclosing
`scheme/serialize' module instance.

Along the same lines, the `dynamic-require' in `scheme/serialize'
really should be in the same phase as the `scheme/serialize' instance.

The v4 namespace-anchor support is a step toward solving both of these
problem, but more is needed. I was just waiting for an example to add
that extra support --- and I hadn't noticed that we already have one.
