Why not do it at the top level directly? E.g.:

,----
| (defvar lh/labels '("label1" "label2" "label3"))
| 
| (defmacro lh/gen-predicate (label)
|   `(defun ,(intern (concat "lh/" label "-p")) ()
|      (member ,label *lh/system-label-store*)))
| 
| (mapc (lambda (label)
|         (lh/gen-predicate label))
|       lh/labels)
`----
