WG1 - Core

description

(In this ticket, "complex" is used for readability; it is synonymous with "non-real".)

This feature is true in implementations that support complex numbers such that both the real and the imaginary parts are exact; that is, if `(eqv? 3+4i 3.0+4.0i)` evaluates to `#f`.  This feature is false if complex numbers are not supported or if only inexact complex numbers are supported.  Most of the applications of complex numbers use inexact numbers, but some applications may require exactness: this feature allows those applications to fail fast on implementations that cannot support them.

Existing implementations:

* Exact complex numbers: Racket, MIT, Gambit, Chicken with the `numbers` egg, Scheme48/scsh, Kawa, Chibi, Chez, Vicare, Ypsilon, Mosh, !IronScheme, STklos, Wraith 
* No exact complex numbers: Gauche, Guile, SISC, SCM, Scheme 7, KSi, UMB, Stalin 
* No complex numbers: Chicken without the `numbers` egg, Bigloo, Ikarus, RScheme, Scheme 9, Oaklisp, Elk, VX, Sixx, Sizzle, Dream, Owl Lisp, Psyche

Correction: the WG voted to '''accept''' this procedure.  However, nothing needs to be done, as it is already in the draft.

This is actually in draft 5, but didn't exist when `cond-expand` was voted on, so we need to vote on it.
