Comment(by sjamaan):

 Here's a testcase that also fails with the other macro system, plus a
 patch that fixes it. It causes strip-syntax to strip syntax off of
 primitives too. This is neccessary since macro syntax environments inside
 modules always contain all imported bindings, which includes {{(void .
 #%void)}}. This is always rewritten for syntax-rules and stripping syntax
 should restore this back to the original symbol "void".

 Applying this patch also fixes the testcase in the other patch.  I think
 both patches should be applied, probably.  I can't currently think of a
 case which would break but I'm sure with deeply nested macros the earlier
 patch provides some added robustness.
