Just to make sure I understand, you're suggesting that equal? recur to
itself on the elements of pairs and vectors but defer entirely to
equiv? for records, so that even if the the fields of the records being
compared contain pairs and vectors, those pairs and vectors are compared
with equiv?. Right?
