It should be  just 'false', as expressed in the first message (i.e.
x==1 and 5==2)

I mean, if we consider ',' as an expression that creates a list
object, than 1,2 == could be just some kind of sugar.
But chosing some kind of precedence would probably be impossible, or
wqould break many of the actual behaviours.
