Summary: assertEquals does not correctly compare boxed numeric types

Initial Comment:
JUnit 4.3.1 Assert.assertEquals(Object,Object) does not correctly compare boxed numeric types. If the Objects are instances of Number, it converts the Objects to primitive long values and then compares the long values. This discards the fractional part of Double, Float, and BigDecimal, leading to incorrect results.
