i find myself that the order of cases in syntax-case and macros is
important,
complex case must be put before simplest ones in order to avoid them to be
parsed before,
unless that they are shadowed by simplest ones...

the solution was just to reorder them from complex -> simple ones:

(define-syntax def

    (lambda (stx)
      (syntax-case stx (declare)

;; (def (declare x y z) 1 2 (list x y z))
;; (() () ())

((_ (declare var1 ...) <body> ...) #`(letrec ((var1 '()) ...)
      <body> ...))

;;  (def (foo) (when #t (return "hello") "bye"))
        ((_ (<name> <arg> ...) <body>  ...)
         (let ((ret-id (datum->syntax stx 'return)))
           #`(define (<name> <arg> ...)
               (call/cc (lambda (#,ret-id) <body>  ...)))))

;; definition without a value assigned
;; (def x)
((_ var) #`(define var '()))

;; (def x 7)
((_ var expr) #`(define var expr))


)))
