sub cmp {
    my $self              = shift;
    my ($other,$reversed) = @_;

    my $name  = $self->name;
    my $value = $self->value;

    my $result;
    if (ref $other && $other->isa(__PACKAGE__)) {
	my $other_name  = $other->name;
	my $other_value = $other->value;
	$result = "${name}${value}" cmp "${other_name}${other_value}";
    } else {
