Hmm. I recently upgraded an old Clojure release and Compojure at the same time and all code that used keywords to access the nice Compojure data broke. Regrettably I don't have the same setup available so I can't provide more details. It must have been a keyword handling change in Clojure. I find keywords/map integration much less useful/powerful now with the recent master branch, but that's a topic for another thread. Compojure is wonderful btw.
