The second arg to hashx-set! and hashx-ref is supposed to be like
assoc/assq/assv, not equal?/eqv?/eq?.  So...

guile> (let ((ht (make-hash-table)))
         (hashx-set! (lambda (k s) 1) assoc ht 'foo 'bar)
         (hashx-ref (lambda (k s) 1) assoc ht 'foo))
bar

That definitely shouldn't happen, though.  Would you mind raising this
as a bug at Guile's Savannah project, for ease of tracking, and attach
the test patch that reproduces it (for which many thanks!).
