It should suffice to override just __eq__ and __hash__.  However, you can't
override __eq__ via object.__eq__:

>>> dir(object)
['__class__', '__delattr__', '__getattribute__', '__hash__',
 '__init__', '__new__', '__reduce__', '__repr__', '__setattr__',
 '__str__']
>>> object.__eq__
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
AttributeError: type object 'object' has no attribute '__eq__'
