I understand this is not a normal way to create Fractions, but serializers
must often construct objects in other-than-normal ways. This constructor
on Fraction is actually a valid API, but leaves an inconsistent comparison
contract with other Numbers.
I fixed it by reverting Fraction>>#= to the (nice 3/28/2006 23:41) edition.
