Here's an example I have that shows what Stephen suggested. It's overly complicated with the trig, but the rotation is a small object overlaid on a larger circle. Specifically, the blue circle background is rotating back-and-forth and the small red circle is along for the ride. But it looks like

I've noticed this bug too, but I think that, in the meantime, you can just do an "in place" build. That is, create some build directory to run configure in, but don't pass an install dir and instead let the make install phase go directly into the plt tree where you're building from. This works in g

Well, the 2htdp/image library does not work like that. If you overlay and the rotate then your background will be roated. If you rotate and then overlay the you may place things in different (relative) positions but you still don't get any different behavior by rotating around different points. Ma
