Description
A small thing, from grepping the source for procedure-rename and case-lamba to see how they're handled if used to implement any of the api, since then one can't rely on rewriting : https://github.com/racket/racket/issues/3234 https://github.com/racket/racket/issues/3235 .

Research direction
Reproduce the Beginning Student example using freeze 1 2, then grep the source for procedure-rename and case-lamba as the issue suggests. Read the linked issues #3234 and #3235 for context; done means arity errors from freeze are rewritten consistently with the other handled cases.
