Alright. I think the forum discussion has convinced me that having opEquals =
(opCmp()==0) is a bad idea.
Instead, Jonathan's solution is the best: get rid of the compile error that
forces you to declare opEquals just because you declared opCmp. Code that
defines opCmp that's inconsistent with opEquals is already broken, and we
aren't making things worse. Assuming that the user-defined opCmp is consistent
with opEquals, then the AA code change that switched from using
typeinfo.compare to typeinfo.equals should still work correctly on existing
code. So this sounds like the best way to go.
