Thank you Luis, I have attached to Jira a Junit test for the CompareUtil.equal method that should prove the issue we are facing and should confirm that the fix I am proposing should work ok. As regards the bug fix release, at the moment this is the only issue that I am aware of that is causing some pain to OFBiz and having a bug fix release for it would be great; however I know that the release workflow requires a good amount of work and I am wondering if I or other OFBiz committers may be of any help in the release process (e.g. we could help the FOP community to maintain a release branch for 1.1 by backporting fixes to it and testing it). I am wide open to any suggestions. Of course OFBiz will upgrade to the new release 2.0 as soon as this will be available and we will help you to test that as well. All in all I am just trying to give something back to the FOP community, since the OFBiz community has been a rather silent and passive user of your amazing tool :-)
