Summary: unittest.py still uses != in failUnlessEqual.

Initial Comment:
It was submitted a long time ago to the PyUnit SF.net bug 
tracker 
(http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=453281&group_id=3912&atid=103912), 
and even got the BDFL approval, but still hasn't been 
changed.  See the linked bug for the actual fix. 
 
(I also agree with rengelink's opinion that if __eq__ is 
defined but not __ne__, != should be equivalent to not ==, 
in which case this wouldn't be a problem.)
