That should be `||` (boolean OR). In addition to being less clear, this will 
get an NPE if `rootItem` is ever null, since the bit-wise `|` operator doesn't 
short-curcuit the rest of the `if` test if the first term is true.

Given that this would have caused a regression, and that we don't have a test 
that would catch it, can you add a test that sets the root to null and calls 
sort? It will fail with this version of the fix, but would pass without the fix 
and should pass once you update your fix.
