You're right about the namespace-qualification: I accidentally macroexpanded with syntax-quote rather than quote. My mistake; the actual expansion is the same, but without namespace-qualification.
Using (var ~fn-name) results in the same error, unfortunately. I think now the attempted embedding of a delay into macro code is somewhere else, but I don't know.
