The hash code doesn't have to be unique, two Objects can have the same
HashCode but can still not be "equal()".
If it is the same HashCode for ALL OIDs then that would cause a problem.
Having looked at Franks source code for the OID object this cannot be
possible.
It appears that you have simply found two OIDs that are caluclated with the
same HashCode, which more than acceptable and just as Gosling intended.
