In fact, in 'variable.spad', the result should be true always.

 Moreover, even this function gives the wrong answer. According to the ')set 
mess bot on message', the test function is taken from the domain '(INT->INT)', 
which is 'Mapping(INT, INT)'. Unfortunately, Mapping is an Axiom primitive and 
according to available documentation:

\begin{axiom}
)show Mapping
\end{axiom}

In any case, according to Hyperdoc, there is only one function exported: (you 
guessed it) equality testing. I have no idea where the code is or how the 
testing is done. Equivalence of functions (lambda terms) is undecidable, so I 
suppose equality here means equality in implementation? But surely, 'p' should 
be equal to 'p' however you test it.
