[racket] syntax-local-value of define-syntax-class

Bleh, nevermind. It does work without the begin-for-syntax. I think I need a syntax-local-transform, or whatever that function is that executes stuff at phase+1.

My original code was working because I had provided the syntax class at phase 0 and 1, the non-working code only had the class at phase 1.

There is one part of my original code base where this works and another where it doesn't. I cannot seem to replicate the part that works in a small test case.
