Hi Vikas, this issue occurs when Movitz tries to convert a native
(i.e. CLisp) hash-table object to its internal format. When it looks
up the hash-table's test function, the code expects it to be one of
eq, eql, or equal (there is an ecase statement about this in
storage-types.lisp). However, CLisp returns things like fasthash-eql,
which confuses Movitz. I have added code to deal with this now.

Also, I verified that after these two fixes, CLisp will build Movitz
Ok, at least on two systems I have access to (windows/cygwin and
FreeBSD).
