Whan a varient varies in title type, but not in author or title, the varien display is incorrect.
Example: The one-volume Novel "The Green Mile" (Title# 641469) is a variant of the |Omnibus (Title #26690). This has the odd result that in the series display (Series # 1563) the line "The Green Mile (1996) [O] by Stephen King [also as by Stephen King ]" appears.

Fixed by the commit of biblio/common.py 1.20. Modified the test for "identical" titles, which had been relying solely on the text of the two titles matching, to include matching title type. Any difference in text OR type will cause the variant to be displayed on its own line, rather than mistakenly as an author variation.
Fixed in r2009-12.
