Like Richard, I think that not all of the functions are needed,
because some can be trivially expressed by others.

I thought we always implemented only the minimum required set.  For
example, we have version<, but not version>=; we have
string-collate-lessp, but not string-collate-greaterp.  Why do we need
to stray from that principle in this case?  And if we must have all of
those functions, why cannot they share most of their code?
