The only values _packt ever had were z64 and None.  The only thing _packt
was used for that appeared to make sense was to block undo while a pack
was in progress, and a bool works better for that.  tids were compared
to _packt in a few spots, but since the only values _packt could have
were in {z64, None}, the comparisons were doomed to (regardless of tid)
return "greater than" (z64) or to be undefined (None; although in recent
Pythons None is reliably less than objects of other types, so "greater
than" was the only outcome possible from these comparisons under 2.3.3).
Removed these comparisons, collapsing surrounding expressions to
equivalents taking into account that tid < self._packt was always false.
