Danny, This is an issue with the type Any. Typed Racket has to protect all values passed from typed code to untyped code from all possible type-unsound uses. For many kinds of values, this means Typed Racket has to close off pretty much all kinds of uses. In your case, you have a transparent struct. If it were unwrapped, untyped code could inspect it, extract a constructor for its struct type, create an instance with field contents that violate your define-struct: declaration, and pass it back into typed code. You have to be very careful with Any on boundaries, because it has to make a lot of things completely opaque.
Sadly, off the top of my head, I don't have a quick workaround for you. Maybe Sam will have a better suggestion.
