The lines numbered 749 and 758 that read:
	PyTypeObject *vtp;
and
	vtp = v->ob_type;
respectively, seem to have no use in implementation of
PyObject_Compare in the current CVS.

One would hope that a sane compiler would optimize
those lines out, but one cannot be certain.

Looks like you are right, Josiah.  I am compiling now and will run 
the test suite quickly to make sure our eyes aren't lying to us.

OK, compiled with no problem so the line removals have been 
checked in.
