Description

It looks to me like there is a problem in records when the field name "values" is used:

(defrecord Foo [values])

(= (Foo. 1)
(Foo. 1))

;; -> false

Hi David,

This condition seems to go back to 1.2 and still exists in version 1.3.0-alpha7. We'll take a look.

Thank you

The problem seems to occur whenever a field name conflicts with a name of one of the record's protocol functions:

(defrecord R [isEmpty])

(= (R. 42) (R. 42))
;=> false

(defrecord RR [count])

(= (RR. 42) (RR. 42))
;=> false

Either this should be made to work, or an error signalled regarding a name clash. Anyone have an opinion?
