One feature in the deftype/defrecord split that I regret is that defrecord no 
longer allows the redefinition of equals and hashCode. Any attempt to override 
those results in an error message about duplicate method definitions.

I have several former deftypes that are a perfect fit for the new defrecord, 
except that they need a specific comparison function. This is usually for 
excluding some fields from equality testing, or for requiring identity rather 
than equality for some fields.

As it is, I must convert all these to the new deftype, losing the convient 
field access through keywords.
