I think having the simple lexicographical_compare forward to the predicate
version with std::less<void>() is valid. All I am saying is that I'll be
able to tell the difference if we do it, but that's just because some copy
elision won't happen (in a contrived testcase), and compilers were never
forced to do copy elision, so that's ok. It should even work in C++03 with
an emulation of less<void> using 16 overloads (T cv1&, U cv2&).
By the way, I thought someone had contributed less<void> and the others
already, but I can't see them. Did I imagine that patch?
