But it's a bug!

Do we say that we don't want to fix `(array? car) => #t)' now because
Guile has behaved this way for a while?

Plus, the behaviour is going to change in 1.8, because someone has
already made a fix in HEAD.  Given that it will change, surely it's
better to do sooner.  We're not in the middle of a stable release
series yet.
