This is what I suggest be done.
Now, Vincent objects to the same-radix requirement. Normally I would
object too, but I gave in on my proposal in the 754-2008 work group to
specify cross-radix comparisons as optional, but required to be correct
if provided. Instead, 754-2008 discourages cross-radix comparisons, and
since 1788.1 derives its numerical basis from 754-2008, I agree with
the restriction that avoids the need for correct cross-radix comparisons.
