(attributes value)]{
The @racket[static] syntax class matches an
identifier that is bound in the syntactic environment to static
information (see @scheme[syntax-local-value]) satisfying the given
@scheme[predicate]. If the term does not match, the
@scheme[description] argument is used to describe the expected syntax.
When used outside of the dynamic extent of a macro transformer (see
@scheme[syntax-transforming?]), matching fails.
The attribute @var[value] contains the value the name is bound to.

Literal set containing the identifiers for fully-expanded code
(@secref[#:doc '(lib "scribblings/reference/reference.scrbl")

@scheme[kernel-form-identifier-list], plus @scheme[module],
@scheme[#%plain-module-begin], @scheme[#%require], and

Note that the literal-set uses the names @scheme[#%plain-lambda] and
@scheme[#%plain-app], not @scheme[lambda] and @scheme[#%app].
