 call equal_tagged_value() when you find a union type when
 comparing structs deeply.  (C backend, probably others)
 
+There appears to be a bug with casting a union type to
+itself?  The tag in the tagged value is the union?

 Name mangling for compilers (prepend with `_` most likely.)
 
 And literal characters in strings, especially `'` and `"`.
