[Cython] libcpp.string operators

[Brent Pedersen]

hi, i have been using a stub for the c++ <string> in a lot of my work.
i decided to have a go at doing a proper string.pxd, pasted here:

https://gist.github.com/929604

other than the operators, it's mostly implemented with tests. but when
i try the operators
with this test:

def test_equal_operator(char *a, char *b):
    """
    >>> test_equal_operator("asdf", "asdf")
    True
    """
    cdef string s = string(a)
    cdef string t = string(b)
    cdef bint same = t == s
    return same

and this declaration in the pxd:

    bint operator==(string&, string&)

i get the error below. any ideas what i'm doing wrong?
thanks,
-brent
