Try changing
{ define responder ?:name = ?uri:expression
to
{ define responder ?:name ?equal:token ?uri:expression
While what you wrote looks like it should be legal according to the
BNF, but I've noticed that GD sometimes has obscure troubles whenever
the '=' token is used in a macro definition. Try changing the
definition to accept any token there and see if it works -- if it does
you can just write your macro calls with '='.
