### Vue.js & vue-router.js version `2.0.0-rc.3`, `2.0.0-rc.3` ### Steps to reproduce `<router-link to="/" exact>Start</router-link>` applies the active class but `<router-link :to="{ name: 'start' }" exact>Start</router-link>` doesn't. ### Problem Should be the `isSameRoute` function in [`/src/util/route`](https://github.com/vuejs/vue-router/blob/next/src/util/route.js), but i cant find the error. ### Link to reproduce Here is a jsfiddle with that shows the behaviour: http://jsfiddle.net/jwahdatehagh/feowLxqm/1/ (thanks to @posva)
