These booleans are already implemented in the CVS version of Jacl.
The CVS version also has support for the string "ne" and "eq" operators
in expr parsing.

Yes, it is. There is the new 'lset' command that has not yet been
implemented, but almost all the Tcl 8.4 features work in Jacl.
The regexp package is the only area with large differences.
