Are you referring to the special case on line 2730 of teach.rkt when you say posns?
I think that means that I'd have to make the teaching language depend on 2htdp/image, which doesn't seem right. I would have thought that the right thing would be to extend the define-primitive protocol so that I can declare that 'color' is both a function and a struct constructor and then match would not have to special case 'color'. No?
