> As reported by Desert Rose on IRC and on the ML, {{Result}} has a weird
> behavior when some families share the same prefix. He posted a link to his
> code to show how it fails, http://pastebin.com/7TBA1XGh
> Basically {{KeyComparator.compareWithoutRow}} doesn't differentiate families
> and qualifiers so "f:a" is said to be bigger than "f1:", which is false. Then
> what happens is that the KVs are returned in the right order from the RS but
> then doing {{Result.binarySearch}} it uses
> {{KeyComparator.compareWithoutRow}} which has a different sorting so the end
> result is undetermined.
> I added some debug and I can see that the data is returned in the right order
> but {{Arrays.binarySearch}} returned the wrong KV, which is then verified
> agains the passed family and qualifier which fails so null is returned.
> I don't know how frequent it is for users to have families with the same
> prefix, but those that do have that and that use those families at the same
> time will have big correctness issues. This is why I mark this as a blocker.
