James Baldassari commented on AVRO-996:
---------------------------------------
I had some time to work on it tonight. I found that the root cause of this bug
was the incorrect handling of union types by GenericData#deepCopy(Schema,
Object). Patch coming soon.
> Java: SpecificRecord builder pattern object copy fails with unions in some
> cases
