As Anton has pointed out, the assert-equal? macro cannot be
used in this situation, where a function is expected.  For
these situations there are functions that 'shadow' the
macro definitions.  They have the same name except a * is
appended.  So you should write:

  map assert-equal?* '(1) '(1)) 


and it should work.
