Actually, I think you'd probably be better off if you fixed these
broken comparisions that does (@list1 eq @list2) very early in the
series, perhaps as [PATCH 0.8/6].  

I am sure Perl experts among us on the list can come up with a
cleaner and better implementation of compare_lists sub I am adding
here, but in the meantime, here is what I would start with if I were
working on this topic.

Thanks.
