When they're equivalent, EQ+make_fixnum seems more readable to me, too.

Funnily, I get the same timings for each of the three versions on this machine:
model name : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6820HQ CPU @ 2.70GHz
with trunk GCC.
But the assembly code generated is clearly better for the make_fixnum
version (as a nitpick, f and g aren't equivalent, but the code
produced is worse for f even with assume()s that make it equivalent to
g).
