Comparing sequences created with sequence causes a stack overflow when used as first argument to =.

Consider this transducer:

user=> (def map-inc (map inc))
#'user/map-inc

When creating a sequence and comparing with expected results, it works fine as the second argument to the comparison:

user=> (= (range 1 11) (sequence map-inc (range 10)))
true

But a stack overflow occurs when the order of arguments is reversed:

user=> (= (sequence map-inc (range 10)) (range 1 11))

StackOverflowError   clojure.lang.LazyTransformer.equals (LazyTransformer.java:202)
user=> (clojure.stacktrace/print-stack-trace *e 10)
java.lang.StackOverflowError: null
 at clojure.lang.LazyTransformer.equiv (LazyTransformer.java:185)
    clojure.lang.LazyTransformer.equals (LazyTransformer.java:202)

    clojure.lang.LazyTransformer.equiv (LazyTransformer.java:185)
    clojure.lang.LazyTransformer.equals (LazyTransformer.java:202)
nil

The error persists, even if the sequence is forced with doall:

user=> (= (doall (sequence map-inc (range 10))) (doall (range 1 11)))

StackOverflowError   clojure.lang.LazyTransformer.equiv (LazyTransformer.java:185)

It does work as expected, however, if the sequence is converted to a vector:

user=> (= (vec (sequence map-inc (range 10))) (range 1 11))
true
