/**
 * comparesame(), comparecoeff() - compare with an
 *   InternalPoly.
 *
 * comparesame() compares the coefficient vectors of f=CO and
 * g=acoeff w.r.t to a lexicographic order in the following way:
 * f < g iff there exists an 0 <= i <= max(deg(f),deg(g)) s.t.
 * i) f[j] = g[j] for all i < j <= max(deg(f),deg(g)) and
 * ii) g[i] occurs in g (i.e. is not equal to zero) and
 *     f[i] does not occur in f or f[i] < g[i] if f[i] occurs
 * where f[i] denotes the coefficient to the power x^i of f.
 *
 * As usual, comparesame() returns 1 if CO is larger than c, 0 if
 * CO equals c, and -1 if CO is less than c.  However, this
 * function is optimized to test on equality since this is its
 * most important and frequent usage.
 *
 * See the respective `CanonicalForm'-methods for an explanation
 * why we define such a strange (but total) ordering on
 * polynomials.
