[Simpletest-support] Confusing message from assertClone when comparing arrays of objects

[Aaron C. <aar...@un...>]

Please refer to the attached file.

What seems to be happening, is that two different arrays (one indexed, 
one associative) are compared with assertClone. Simpletest reports that 
"[Array: 3 items] and [Array: 3 items] should not be the same object at 
[TestSimpletestCloneTestCase.php line 27]". This seems to be implying 
that Simpletest detected the two arrays as being one?

In comparison assertReference returns "[Array: 3 items] and [Array: 3 
items] should reference the same object at 
[TestSimpletestCloneTestCase.php line 33]". Which is an expected outcome.

I'm uncertain at this stage if there is a problem between my chair and 
keyboard, or if Simpletest is telling mincy pies?
