Is it possible for different Java compilers or JVMs to behave
different?  ie. Produce different hashcode on one platform and
produce same hashcode on another?

Also, an excerpt from the JDK 1.3 API docs:

    It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to
    the equals(java.lang.Object) method, then calling the
    hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce
    distinct integer results.

So, technically, it is possible for two hashcodes generated by
the Object class to collide.

Maybe some implementations generate poor hashcodes?
