rb_ary_equal ("1.8.2 2004-09-17")

 it's normal ? (see where is the test RARRAY(ary1)->len != RARRAY(ary2)->len)

static VALUE
rb_ary_equal(ary1, ary2)
    VALUE ary1, ary2;
{
    long i;

    if (ary1 == ary2) return Qtrue;
    if (TYPE(ary2) != T_ARRAY) {
        if (!rb_respond_to(ary2, rb_intern("to_ary"))) {
            return Qfalse;
        }
        return rb_equal(ary2, ary1);
    }
    for (i=0; i<RARRAY(ary1)->len; i++) {
        if (RARRAY(ary1)->len != RARRAY(ary2)->len) return Qfalse;
        if (!rb_equal(RARRAY(ary1)->ptr[i], RARRAY(ary2)->ptr[i]))
            return Qfalse;
    }
    return Qtrue;
}
