Subject: GET / GETF warning.

The fact that GET/GETF use EQ instead of EQL needs to be emphasized
more.  Such as a remark that it is an error to use a number as an
indicator in the property list.

It's all the worse that for many implementations EQL fixnums are EQ,
so you don't see the bug until your problem gets into bignums.

This might be a useful thing to put in the FAQ list, too.
