Avoid creating duplicate ordered append paths

Browse Source 
In generate_orderedappend_paths(), the function does not handle the
case where the paths in total_subpaths and fractional_subpaths are
identical.  This situation is not uncommon, and as a result, it may
generate two exactly identical ordered append paths.

Fix by checking whether total_subpaths and fractional_subpaths contain
the same paths, and skipping creation of the ordered append path for
the fractional case when they are identical.

Given the lack of field complaints about this, I'm a bit hesitant to
back-patch, but let's clean it up in HEAD.
