+/*
+ * 989_ampfncollide_run (#4, c2) — `&fn` synthesis must prefer the current
+ * module's fn when a same-leaf fn is declared in a later module.
+ *
+ * THE BUG (review item #4, 2026-06-11): unoptype's TK_AMP fn-ident synth
+ * (check.ww ~2677) and assignableaddrfn (check.ww ~4182) looked the fn up
+ * with bare scopelookup — no (name,module) preference. scopedefineinmodule
+ * PREPENDS, so a LATER module's same-leaf fn heads the bucket chain and the
+ * bare lookup binds ITS signature. Two faces:
+ *   - LOUD: `let p: *hfn = &handler` in beta (hfn = fn(i32)i32, beta.handler
+ *     is i32->i32) is REJECTED by wwstage ("let: not assignable") because it
+ *     binds gamma.handler(str)str, while cstage (scope_lookup_prefer with
+ *     cur_mod, check.c:410/1305) binds beta.handler and accepts. Valid code
+ *     wrongly rejected.
+ *   - SILENT (cat-A): `let p: *gfn = &handler` where gfn = fn(str)str (the
+ *     FOREIGN sig) is REJECTED by cstage (beta.handler is i32->i32, not
+ *     assignable) but ACCEPTED by wwstage (it binds gamma.handler(str)str,
+ *     which matches gfn) — a type-confused fn pointer (LEAQ beta.handler
+ *     into a *fn(str)str slot) in a green build.
+ * THE FIX: both sites use scopelookupprefer(c.cur, c.curmod, ...).
+ *
+ *   row    | shape                                   | result (cs==ww)
+ *   -------+-----------------------------------------+-----------------
+ *   loud   | *hfn = &handler (own-sig slot)          | run 42 (was ww reject)
+ *   silent | *gfn = &handler (foreign-sig slot)      | build FAIL (was ww ok)
+ *
+ * Single-file multi-package source is the sanctioned shape (cmd/ww/main.c).
+ * want = -1 means "build must fail on both stages".
