True, the collection classes are the same, but the JDK 1.1 collections package
includes its own version of 'Comparable'. This conflicts with
java.lang.Comparable, and therefore causes the ambiguous references during
compilation. It would be possible to work around this problem if java.lang
weren't implicitly imported by the compiler or if java.lang.Comparable were in
a different package (e.g., java.util), but no such luck. :(
