Hyperspec says EQ is defined on any "object".
Clicking on "object" yields:
object n. 1. any Lisp datum. ``The function cons creates an object
which refers to two other objects.'' 2. (immediately following the
name of a type) an object which is of that type, used to emphasize
that the object is not just a name for an object of that type but
really an element of the type in cases where objects of that type
(such as function or class) are commonly referred to by name. ``The
function symbol-function takes a function name and returns a
function object.''
Seems pretty clear cut.
