RE: [Axiom-developer] Obfuscated Boot Code Contest

[Weiss, Juergen]

I have just had a look at the sources. 

The redefinitions of 
ASSOC, DELETE, INTERSECTION, MEMBER, RASSOC, REMOVE, UNION 
seem to have the same source (all defined in vmlisp.lisp).
COMMON LISP has different semantics than VMLISP
(in this case with regard to equality in those functions).
