Are you referring to java.net.Proxy? Proxy.equals depends on the
resolution of its address. Address resolution could change over time,
depending on the caching policy. java.net.URL has a similar issue.
  
Just on this, are there issues with java.net.Proxy that should be added 
to the javadoc? URL is a well known pariah but I didn't know about 
java.net.Proxy. It looks like its equals depends on the equality of 
socket addresses but that shouldn't involve lookups, right?
