The bug actually wasn't in 'local-type-fold', but it's true that the
type inferencer assumed in a few places that if (nil? X) returned #t
that X must be #nil, and similarly for 'null?' and ().

I've attached a proposed fix.

Andy, does this fix look right to you?

     Thanks,
       Mark

Subject: [PATCH] Fix type inferencing for 'nil?' and 'null?' predicates.

Fixes <https://bugs.gnu.org/33036>.
Reported by <address@hidden>.

* module/language/cps/types.scm (define-simple-type-inferrer):
Apply (logand (&type val) <>) uniformly.  Previously, this was done only
in the false branch.  Rename local variable to 'type*', to allow the
macro operand 'type' to be an arbitrary expression.
(*type-inferrers*)<null?>: Add &nil to the set of possible types.
(*type-inferrers*)<nil?>: Add &false and &null to the set the possible
types.
* module/language/cps/type-fold.scm (*branch-folders*)<null?>: Add &nil
to the set of possible types.
(*branch-folders*)<nil?>: Add &false and &null to the set the possible
types.
* test-suite/tests/compiler.test: Add tests.
