first-class macros would obviously solve this problem completely, that same way scheme eliminates the need for CL's flet and labels. it would be nice if we could just assign anonymous macros to bindings, but we can't do that yet.

the problem is that the composition just doesn't really make sense in this context, as you said. it doesn't translate the way composition should. in my opinion, maclet is deserving of it's own form.
