[plt-scheme] accessing a top-level variable whose name is stored in a global variable

Hi--My question has to do with how to accomplish indirection in
Scheme--in particular, in the following (slightly simplified)
function:

(define (infoml:get-card-from-active-rack n)
  (list-ref (eval *infoml:active-rack-name*) n))

My intent is this. A "rack" is a named list defined at the top level,
and my program has exactly one active rack. You guessed it, its name
is stored in *infoml:active-rack-name*. In my code, I create a rack
named decision-making as follows:

(define decision-making (infoml:make-rack 'decision-making))

In addition to defining a rack (i.e., a list) named decision-making,
it also stores the value of the symbol 'decision-making in the global
variable *infoml:active-rack-name*.

What I'm trying to do with infoml:get-card-from-active-rack is to
return the n'th item from the currently active rack--in this case, the
n'th item in the rack/list named decision-making. At first, I wrote a
function like this:

(define (infoml:get-card-from-active-rack n)
  (list-ref *infoml:active-rack-name* n))

... but that certainly didn't work. I read a lot of the PLT Scheme
documentation but couldn't find anything that allowed me the
indirection that I wanted. The documentation on eval was particularly
forbidding, but I tried it anyway...and it seems to work!

However, at the end of my program (which *is* giving me the correct
output), I get the following error message:

compile: unbound identifier (and no #%top syntax transformer is bound)
in: decision-making

I'd appreciate any insights on what would be a good way to accomplish
what I'm trying to do. I'm not expecting any lengthy explanations, but
pointing me to the right PLT Scheme documentation would be entirely
sufficient. Thanks.
