I was calling (gimp-plugin-menu-branch-register from top level, i.e.
it was a statement in scm file along with many (defines.
So how does that work? script-fu interpreter processes defines
first, then any (script-fu-register*) statements, nothing else? Any
other precedence rules?

I did this:
(define (wrf_register_menu_branch)
(gimp-plugin-menu-branch-register "<Image>/File/Create" "W_oodrat")
"_Finger..."
)
(script-fu-register "wrf_create_template_finger"
(wrf_register_menu_branch) ; menu label
....
which works. (script-fu-register when it runs has to call
(wrf_register_menu_branch), which does the register thing.

Oh dear. I've had enough mental exercise for this year learning
script-fu. Not sure by brain could take relearning python.
Also that would require that end users of script, generally assumed
not to be highly computer literate, would have to install python as
well as GIMP.
Anyway, my kludge seems to work. Thanks for pointer on how to do it.
Yrs,
