Description Henrik Lindberg CLA 2010-07-10 20:09:28 EDT 
This functionality for matches that compares lists and maps needs to be revisited now that literal simple pattern (i.e. ~"a*a" is supported. 

When comparing list == list, the content should be compared with equals.
When comparing with ~= elements should be matched using patterns if there are any.

Note that ANY '_' is always equal to just any irrespective of the way the comparison is made, to find an ANY, an identiical match must be done with ===
Comment 1 Henrik Lindberg CLA 2010-10-02 18:34:32 EDT 
Fixed in revision 1320.

SimplePattern is now supported for matches operator, and matches on List and Map was already performed using call to matches operator function.

Tests updated.
