Whether it's your mistake is debatable ;)

create_module(m,[],[]) makes a really empty module, i.e. one that doesn't
even have any built-in predicates visible, in particular not true/0.

If assert/1 didn't turn bar(X) into (bar(X):-true) your example would work
anyway.  In fact, it works if you use compile_term/1 instead of assert/1...
