CompiledMethod>>= / BlockClosure>>= stack overflow bug

I performed a convert to instance variable refactoring and got a stack
overflow error. It was trying to compare two CompiledMethod. The
CompiledMethod>>= method sends equal to the literal arrays which sends
#= to each element. If one of the elements is a BlockClosure, the
BlockClosure>>= method then sends #= to the CompiledMethod.
