#3720: templated comparison operators
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  anonymous         |       Owner:  fcacciola
     Type:  Feature Requests  |      Status:  new      
Milestone:  Boost 1.42.0      |   Component:  optional 
  Version:  Boost 1.41.0      |    Severity:  Problem  
 Keywords:                    |  
------------------------------+---------------------------------------------
 template<class T> inline bool operator == ( optional<T> const& x,
 optional<T> const& y ) ;

 and all other comparison operators should be replaced by

 template<class T,class Y> bool operator==(optional<T> const &,optional<Y>
 const &);

 so optionals of different but comparable types can be compared.
