I haven't dug into the C++ syntax here, I trust you know what you're
doing there.

But some tests in t/t4034/cpp/* would be great, and seem from the files
easy to add. E.g. wouldn't changing:

    a<b a<=b a>b a>=b


to:

    a<b a<=b a>b a>=b a<=>b

Give you an updated regression test for your 3/3? Similar changes can be
done for 1-2/3.
