I'm not wild about the idea of reintroducing it. I'd at least like some kind of transition strategy that 2to3 can help with (if not implement entirely). Perhaps something like, "if a class defines a __cmp__ method but not __lt__, __gt__, __ge__, etc, 2to3 will insert those methods, implemented by wrapping calls to cmp() as appropriate".
