[racket] Recent GIT HEAD Breakage On Linux

(Sorry it has taken me so long to reply to this.)

What was in the definitions window when you did this?

The stack trace makes me think that there is something wrong with the
language in the definitions window and something wrong with DrRacket's
error recover code in that case, as that's what DrRacket seems to be
doing is to try get some information from the language to use to
determine if the expression you're editing in the REPL is a complete
expression or not (ie if the return is just a newline, or if it should
submit the expression for evaluation).
