Right. I didn't see this earlier (http://dev.clojure.org/display/doc/ Documentation+for+1.3+Numerics). We're all on the same page now. (=

Updating the '=' docstring to match that page sounds appropriate ie adding "...,but not between floating points and integer types." This kind of change in equality semantics seems prone to cause really sinister bugs in old 1.2 programs not well unit tested, so I've got a general concern that there's no easy upgrade (like an =' (prime)) for old programs that may have relied on this documented functionality.
