The dictionary entry for arrayEncode says two equal arrays may have different 
array encodings:

"Note: Arrays in LiveCode are un-ordered. This means in particular that 
encoding two arrays will not necessarily produce the same result, even if the 
arrays had the same elements. To compare two arrays, simply use the = operator 
directly on them rather than encoding them first."
