Re: [PATCH] Implement `equal' for hash tables

> Stefan, what do you think of this?

Nothing specific.  For the record, if I were to define `equal` today,
I'd make hash-tables compare structurally, both because that's what
Common Lisp does, and because my rule of thumb is that if it can be
printed `read`ably it should usually be compared structurally.

[ And of course, the order in which the keys were inserted should not
  influence the comparison.  ]

As I said earlier, the issue for me is backward compatibility.
[ As well as the desire to find a more general solution where the
  caller can specify what is compared structurally and what isn't.  ]
