This is because the expression:

  (and:or nil t)
expands to:

  (and (or nil t))
But the expression:

  (idfn and:or)
Expands to:

  (idfn (compose and or))
If you read my comment well, you'll see that I specifically mentioned that:

Actually, I believe what's happening is that

  (and:or nil t)
becomes

  ((compose and or) nil t)
, which is then expanded to

  (and (or nil t))
by ac.scm. Observe:

  arc> ((compose and or) nil t)
  t
