Numeric objects in JRuby do not have guarantees of idempotence. In this code, many places used object equality to compare two Fixnum objects, a situation which is never guaranteed to work, and which is much more likely to fail when JRuby's cache of low-valued Fixnum objects is turned off as in jruby/jruby#5401. This patch removes all such object identity comparisons and replaces them with .equals calls.

This is a 1.4-compatible version of #92. I need this in a racc release to fix jruby/jruby#5401 so I have created this PR to get consensus that this is ok to go in 1-4-stable branch.
