The comment says that this expands all equivalence types,
but the code only expands the top-level equivalence type.
Actually, I think that is sufficient, since at this point
the only place equivalence types should occur is in the arguments
for unification/compare procedures for such types, and in those
they always occur at the type level; but there should be a comment
explaining this.
