For the cmp problem, Jeroen as suggested implementing our own cmp function. Thus, we just add this to the imports of every file that we don't want to go to rich comparisons (i.e., that needs it), which tries calling __cmp__ then falls back to ordering. This should at least get all of Sage to compile (when I said this before, I was thinking only of Cython files and forgot that we actually compile python files [in a different sense]), but it pushes the problem under the rug.
