Details:

In classpath-0.15:

The equals() method for java.text.CollationKey compares byte
arrays using the equals() method at source line 157.
This compares the
arrays for reference equality, rather than comparing their
contents.  I am guessing that this is not the intended behavior.
However, if it is the intended behavior, just using the ==
operator and a comment explaining what is happening would be
a good idea.

This problem found using FindBugs, http://findbugs.sourceforge.net/
