++ now doesn't work regardless any more as of git 45cf376, and <-> is
now also implemented in git bb2cdb7 (didn't add any more tests, since
once the ++ problem is solved then we can't really pass both that test
and the <-> one without having both done properly, so I think coverage
is enough).

Thanks!
