6137	New reverse_graph_edge_descriptor type missing operators	justin.viiret@…	Jeremiah Willcock	"We noticed on upgrading the version of Boost we use to 1.48 that the changes in reverse_graph.hpp broke our ability to construct an STL set of reverse graph edge descriptors.

I think this is likely related to changeset [73997], where the reverse_graph_edge_descriptor class was added; it has equals and not-equals operators, but no less-than.

Adding ""operator<"" for the type seems to be enough to allow sets of reverse edge descriptors, but adding the same set of operators available for the underlying edge_descriptor might be warranted..?
