seems like it's hitting some revised rules for evaluating clauses in a boolean
context, as pprint attempts to sort the contents of the Mapper object's
__dict__. In particular, you can't say bool(Column('x') > Column('y'))
anymore, in 0.7 it would basically make a random guess as to what the result
should be (comparing the id() of each), but some problems were hit with this,
so the behavior was made more strict in 0.8. Only bool(Column('x') ==
Column('y')) has a meaningful result now.
However I'd offer that pprint is not really an appropriate system for rendering
a Mapper object:
http://docs.python.org/2/library/pprint.html
"If the formatted structures include objects which are not fundamental Python
types, the representation may not be loadable. This may be the case if objects
such as files, sockets, classes, or instances are included, as well as many
other built-in objects which are not representable as Python constants."
Observing how pprint works, I'd say it's really more for fundamental data
structures and not application-specific class instances.
