Mike is correct. This change in behavior is due to the hashing changes in Clojure 1.6. See the comments on ticket http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1372 for some discussion of whether this is considered a bug. It appears that perhaps the hash consistency is not promised for mutable objects, only immutable ones.
Below are a couple more REPL transcripts that illustrate the change in behavior: user=> *clojure-version* {:major 1, :minor 5, :incremental 1, :qualifier nil} user=> (= [1 2] (java.util.ArrayList. [1 2])) true user=> (map hash [ [1 2] (java.util.ArrayList. [1 2]) ]) (994 994) user=> (hash-map [1 2] "vec" (java.util.ArrayList. [1 2]) "alist") {[1 2] "alist"} user=> *clojure-version* {:major 1, :minor 6, :incremental 0, :qualifier nil} user=> (= [1 2] (java.util.ArrayList. [1 2])) true user=> (map hash [ [1 2] (java.util.ArrayList. [1 2]) ]) (156247261 994) user=> (hash-map [1 2] "vec" (java.util.ArrayList. [1 2]) "alist") {[1 2] "alist", [1 2] "vec"} Andy On Fri, May 9, 2014 at 3:18 PM, Mike Fikes <mikefi...@me.com> wrote: > Perhaps this is a consequence of the hashing changes in 1.6.
