I don't agree with that description. If a Python class has both __cmp__ and _cmp_ (or both __add__ and _add_), then of course __cmp__ (resp. __add__) are called.
If a Python class has __add__ and _add_, then the *coercion framework* will use _add_, not __add__. When doing a + b, Python will call a.__add__(b) which the coercion framework will translate to an _add_ call on the coerced arguments. My proposal is to do the same for __cmp__.
