 Hi Robert,

 Much improved.  Correct and faster.  Passed all tests in
 sage/groups/perm_gps.

 Do you think the code for the second loop checking the fixed elements of
 the longer permutation would be more readable if it mimicked the first
 loop?  In other words, view the plain i's in the comparison as
 self.perm[i] and then have everything else match up exactly with the first
 loop:

 {{{
 for i from self.n <= i < right.n:
     if i < right.perm[i]:
         return -swap
     elif i > right.perm[i]:
         return swap
 }}}
