Revised patch - originally misinterpreted what was required here.
bytes() == str() now returns False, bytes() != str() now returns True.

Thanks!

This patch looks fine, except the PyClear() call is unnecessary.  I
suppose you copied it from the similar return clauses further down, but
there they clear an exception set by the _getbuffer() call.  But just
calling PyObject_IsInstance() cannot set an exception.

Committed revision 58390.
