[racket] Getting test-engine to work with #lang racket

Well, it does kinda work in the REPL. If you use check-expect in the REPL,
then use (test), it will display the results for running the check forms
declared _in_ the REPL, just not the ones in the source. It just seems to
start with a clean slate.
