Summary: comparison of Decimal instance with None fails

Initial Comment:
attempting to perform a comparison of None with a
Decimal instance yields a type error:

TypeError: You can interact Decimal only with int, long
or Decimal data types.

Since all other types (that I am aware of anyway)
compare higher than None, it would make sense that the
new Decimal type would compare higher as well. Attached
is a patch that does just that. Comments welcome.
