 Exception to the previous item: if the left operand is an instance of
-a built-in type or a new-style class, and the right operand is an
-instance of a proper subclass of that type or class, the right
-operand's \method{__rop__()} method is tried \emph{before} the left
-operand's \method{__op__()} method.  This is done so that a subclass can
-completely override binary operators.  Otherwise, the left operand's

-is always acceptable.
