What I'd like to do is find a fix that would let plain == work anywhere, since there are other places (specifically MooseX::Types, but possibly other things too) that also need to know to do comparisons this way, and that's less than ideal. The issue is that we don't have any machines available that trigger this error, so figuring out how exactly to do this is difficult. If anyone has any machines available to do some testing on, this would be helpful. -doy
