I'm wondering if Mark should add the exception he recently removed back in as a Deprecation Warning when tp_compare is defined, but tp_richcompare is not. Such a warning should also be present when running with -3 in 2.7 (assuming it isn't already there). Otherwise we're going to get more questions like Campbell's wondering if it is intentional that tp_compare is no longer getting called in the 3.x series (the warnings would both make it explicit and give guidance on what to do about it).
