+SWIG supports the spaceship operator <tt>&lt;=&gt;</tt> in constant
+expressions.  To simplifying handling the return value is currently
+treated as an integer rather than <tt>std::strong_ordering</tt>, etc.
+In practice we think that should do the right thing in most cases.

+
+<p>
+SWIG also recognises <tt>operator&lt;=&gt;</tt> which can be wrapped
+if renamed.  There's not currently any default renaming for the operator
+or attempts to automatically map it to a three-way comparison operator
+in any target languages that have one.
