[gambit-list] (define ((...) ...)

Hi,

this question has nothing to do with Gambit in particular but I
couldn't find an explanation.
In Structure and Interpretation of Classical Mechanics, the *first*
procedure defined is

(define ((L-free-particle mass) local)
  (let ((v (velocity local)))
...)

and the book explains that L-free-particle is a procedure that takes
mass as an argument and returns a procedure that takes local as a
parameter.
Now, what doesn't (define ((L-free-particle mass) local) ... work with
Gambit? What is missing?

Thanks,
michele
