gprolog segmentation violation due to infinite recursion in unification

This problem was found by my student Trevor Hackett. To reproduce the problem, build and run gprolog for x86-64 on Fedora 27, or use the gprolog bundled with Fedora 27 x86-64:

$ gprolog
GNU Prolog 1.4.4 (64 bits)

| ?- X = [A,B,C,Y], Y = [A,B,C,X], X = Y.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

It looks like Pl_Unify recurses forever at unify.c:117.
