booleans in quote not transformed correctly

[ngoodman]

(eq? (list true) '(true)) returns false, should be true.

this may be because the boolean inside the quote is turned into a string instead of a literal?

[juliusc]

Scheme has that eq? is a pointer comparison, while equal? is the recursive comparison, and right now we seem to have correct behavior for both.

I still think there's something fishy with booleans in quotes... This (apply not '(#f)) should return true, but it returns false.

In the most recent version (b0d6be6035f2d54526e3aaa91e8a904b13a9d8d2), I get the same behavior for both

(apply not (list #f))

and

(apply not '(#f))

(namely, they both return true)

[ngoodman]

indeed.
