[racket] What am I doing wrong in this typed racket program?

The problem here is that `Any` is a special contract which isn't a
"chaperone contract", and `set/c` requires chaperone contracts.

It's not obvious to me if this can be detected statically, but you can
work around this by changing `Any` to some other type.
