Is the problem the equality between nil and the empty list, or did that just expose some unknown flaw with the way Arc deals with macros?

I _think_ it's some weirdness with the nil/empty list thing. I was getting a case where (str x) resulted in the string "nil", but whatever that object was was not treated as nil, for example in conditionals.
