type-var unification for complex "pair" types not always right

Description
Consider:
(print (assq 'foo (the (pair (pair symbol fixnum) (pair (pair char fixnum) list)) x)))
Matching (list-of (pair a b)) with the argument will unify a and b and then fail on the cdr of the pair type. This needs to be done analogous to a union type instead, so that multiple instantiations of the type variables are handled.
