If you eval `predicate' just after the expression for its value (where I
put the first "!" in the code below), it hasn't been bound yet, so you
get this error.  It should work fine it you're inside the let though

(though not `let') bindings, but in this case, there is no such stop
point.

                     (predicate (pop rule)!)
                     (parse-time-val))
                !(when (and (not (nth (car slots) time)) ;not already set
