It's me.

  I wrote FAST CGI interface to guile. And modules (web http) and
  (web html).

  I want cgi respond looks like

  (http:let ((v foo)
             (w bang))
    (http:respond
                (html:page
                   ... and go on.

  where http:let makes bindings for variables from QUERY_STRING (as PHP
  does). But memoizing macro remembers QUERY_STRING in time of first
  evalution. Not-memoizing macro works well, but only on top level :-((.
  Inside (define (bla-bla) ...) I've got strange value in "exp" parameter
  of procedure->*
