Hi,

I believe it *really* makes sense to turn `scm_is_pair ()' into a macro.

Before:

   %   cumulative   self              self     total           
  time   seconds   seconds    calls   s/call   s/call  name    
  14.74     17.99    17.99 25918076     0.00     0.00  scm_is_pair
  13.72     34.73    16.74   104054     0.00     0.00  deval
  13.27     50.92    16.19    71854     0.00     0.00  scm_i_sweep_card
  13.20     67.03    16.11  3359204     0.00     0.00  scm_gc_mark_dependencies
  ...

After:

   %   cumulative   self              self     total           
  time   seconds   seconds    calls   s/call   s/call  name    
  16.11     17.92    17.92   104054     0.00     0.00  deval
  15.69     35.37    17.45    71854     0.00     0.00  scm_i_sweep_card
  14.77     51.80    16.43  3360490     0.00     0.00  scm_gc_mark_dependencies
  ...

Thanks,
Ludovic.

PS: You might have noticed that GC takes more than twice as long as
    evaluation on this example.  This is the subject of fascinating
    ongoing work.  ;-)
