      The following problem was originally reported in 4634068.

      There are a number of classes that do not respect the
      implied contract for equals and hashCode. See, for example,
      Joshua Bloch's book "Effective Java", items 7-8.

      java.awt.DisplayMode defines
        equals(java.awt.DisplayMode) but doesn't redefine
        equals(Object)

      Problems found by applying automatic tools to JDK
      libraries. However, manual inspectation of the classes
      reveals the same problems.
