GI intend to conquer the pattern matcher this time. Have to do some ticketizing.

The following test case reveals multiple significant issues with equality, including calling equals when it's supposed to be using reference equality, and considering a stable identifier foo to be unreachable on the basis that _: foo.type had not matched. (It can actually learn nothing, because the one should be reference equality and the other should be a call to equals.)

object Test {
  val bippy    = new Symbol("bippy")
  val imposter = new Symbol("bippy")
  val notBippy = new Symbol("not-bippy")
  val syms = List(bippy, imposter, notBippy)

  class Symbol(val name: String) {
    override def equals(other: Any) = other match {
      case x: Symbol  => name == x.name
      case _          => false
    }
    override def toString = name
  }

  def f(s: Symbol) = s match {
    case _: bippy.type  => true
    case _              => false
  }
  def g(s: Symbol) = s match {
    case _: bippy.type => 1
    case `bippy`       => 2
    case _             => 3
  }
  
  def main(args: Array[String]): Unit = {
    // should be: true false false
    syms map f foreach println
    // should be: 1 2 3
    syms map g foreach println
  }
}

Update Feb 2013: all bugs successfully made the transition from oldpatmat to newpatmat. Good job, bugs.

Just for fun I'm marking this a blocker; it shouldn't be that hard to fix, and with the pattern matcher receiving so much love it seems wrong not to fix something so fundamental.

Of course, with "blocker" the default priority in JIRA, I may have unwittingly consigned it to oblivion.

In the interests of making the blockers a little blockier, I bulk-edited most of the "Blockers" down to "Major".
