The other definition is in powers.lisp:
;; emptyp(e) returns true iff e is an empty Maxima list. This function
;; is identical to is(e = []). This function isn't used by any functions
;; in powers; it could be expunged.
(defun $emptyp (e)
(like e '((mlist))))
So it is almost like the one in nset, but only for lists, not for
sets.
As the commetn describes it could (and should) be expunged from
powers.lisp.
