[Ecls-list] amusing bug in equal

In the latest cvs checkout (equal #\( nil) -> T, (equal nil #\() -> Nil.
It appears that equal is only dispatching on the type of the first operand, and
in the case of character comparison, then doing an unguarded CHAR_CODE
operation.
in predicate.d, ecl_equal:
case t_character:
return CHARACTERP(y) && (CHAR_CODE(x) == CHAR_CODE(y));
should fix the problem.
Regards,
Brian.
