I've been trying to write a Racket interpreter that can interpret itself. 

interpreter.rkt contains the code for the interpreter. It is pretty standard. 
Then, in interpreter-self-evaluate.rkt, I 
    1. import interpreter.rkt, 
    2. copy paste the code from interpreter.rkt and 
    3. evaluate the code using the eeval function defined in interpreter.rkt.

However, this returns an error "; mcdr: contract violation". I suspect that the 
problem is in interpreter-self-evaluate.rkt and that it might have something to 
do with how quote works. I might be completely off base though. Any ideas?
