The April draft says(see 
http://www.cygnus.com/misc/wp/draft/lib-support.html#lib.support
.rtti) about type_info::operator==

  bool operator==(const type_info& rhs) const;

  Effects:
    Compares the current object with rhs.
  Returns:
    true if the two values describe the same type.

What does "same" mean here? To be specific, say we had
...
class beatha{public:virtual ~beatha(){};}
class duine:public beatha{};
class gael: public duine {};

beatha *pd=new gael;
if(typeid(pd)==typeid(duine)
{	cout<<"duine";
}
...
does "duine" get printed here or not?
