Subject: Re: [Caml-list] equality over functional value

While we are about it, what is the reason for disallowing structural
comparison over functional values  (that is, comparing for instance the
code address, then the environment) ?  I agree that this semantics may be
somewhat puzzling, but it is useful when storing closures in complex data
structures.
