This operations is ill-defined. The point is that the page numbers are
not computed during the typesetting phase, but only after all pages have
been typeset and during the page breaking stage. So you cannot let
page numbers interact directly with the macro language.

Page references are links, defined by the following macro:

(macro "x"
(locus (id (hard-id (arg "x")))
(hyperlink (id (hard-id (arg "x")))
(url (merge "#" (arg "x"))))
(get-binding (arg "x") "1")))

So I guess that (get-binding (arg "x") "1") will do the job.
