Can you send a patch?  I am planning to put out 1.0.1 tomorrow.
You can find patches attached. Features include
	(a<b).is_equal(b>a)   -> true
	(a==b).is_equal(b==a) -> true
	etc.

Note that I had to introduce also
	relational::calchash
such that
	hash(a < b) == hash(b > a)
	hash(a == b) == hash(b == a)
	etc.
in order to relational::is_equal_same_type will acctually called on
	(a<b).is_equal(b>a)
Earlier a<b and b>a had different hash values and basic::is_equal used to
return false on such cases.

I run also `make check' to ensure that I didn't broke anything. All
tests passed fine.
