All I can suggest is that maybe it's a bug in v.102.
Your example works fine for me with v.101 (on SGI's Irix)
and even with ancient v.51 (on FreeBSD):
> (expand-defmacro '(my-when (< 1 2) "True"))
(#%if (< 1 2) (#%begin "True"))

You might want to try using v.103, and if that doesn't work, then
send them a bug report <URL:http://www.cs.rice.edu/CS/PLT/Bugs/>
or <URL:mailto:plt-bugs@cs.rice.edu>.
