 Comparing `AlgebraicNumber` with `Integer` or `Rational` can lead to
 unexpected results:
 {{{
 sage: x = Integer(1)
 sage: y = Rational(1,1)
 sage: z = AlgebraicNumber(1)
 sage: ( x==y, y==z, x==y )    # so far, so good
 (True, True, True)
 sage: ( set([x,y]), set([x,z]), set([y,z]) )   # what?
 (set([1]), set([1, 1]), set([1, 1]))
 sage: for i in (x,y,z):
 ....:         for j in (x,y,z):
 ....:             print i._cmp_(j)   # i think this is the culprit
 ....:
 0
