Guido approved removing __builtin__.cmp() in 3.0.1. It was supposed to have been taken out but was forgotten. With respect to the DRY principle, I disagree about its utility here. The code is so simple that it doesn't warrant cross-module factorization. It is a better goal to minimize dependencies.
