Another Marilyn Vos Savant conundrum, slightly reworded:

Jill and Jane each have two children.
Jill has at least one son.
Jane's eldest child is a boy.

Is it more likely that Jill has a daughter, or Jane, or is it equally likely?

P.S. to Tony: Because of the straightforward way you got to the heart of the "door" problem, I surmise you are not a computer programmer. <g>
