Greg Brown resolved PIVOT-476.
------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Good catch. At first, I wasn't sure that changing the comparison to be
type-agnostic was the right approach, but it seems like that's how the JDK
List.equals() method works, so there's no reason not to be consistent.
Thanks.
