[racket] web-server/templates: "require: not at module level or top level"

Also, this produces an error saying it's an unknown module if it's a  
local-require:
#lang racket
(module thing racket
   (provide x)
   (define x "something"))
(let ()
   (local-require 'thing)
   x)
;;=>
;; ../../Applications/Racket v5.3.4/collects/racket/private/ 
reqprov.rkt:1092:2: require: unknown module
;;   module name: #<resolved-module-path:'thing>

But this works fine:
#lang racket
(module thing racket
   (provide x)
   (define x "something"))
(require 'thing)
x
;;=> "something"
