A second top-level decl named `main` (fn/let/def/type) collides with
the entry main on the single bare `main` symbol: today both lower to a
bare `main`, w6l silently accepts the duplicate, and the program links
rc=0 then segfaults (or runs wrong), in both stages. The existing
duplicate-decl rejects key on (name, module), so a cross-module
`foo.main` vs the bare entry `main` read as distinct and slip through.
Add a program-global, name-only, cross-module uniqueness check on
`main` in the checker (both stages), colocated with the duplicate-decl
rejects and counting user decls before the -T synthesized test main.
Corpus-safe: a lone `fn main` in any package stays legal (ww has no
package-main convention -- cmatrix/lisp/mandelbrot are non-main-package
entries and keep building). This converts the silent segfault to a
loud compile error and subsumes the w6l silent-dup-main case (#31);
correct package-aware mangling of a non-entry main is deferred to the
root-unit entry-detection work (#22/#32).
Regenerates the w6c and wwdump combined.ww. Table-driven 842 test:
reject rows for let/fn/def/type main (genuine cross-module import form)
plus a negative single-main corpus-safe row that must still build+run.
The try-operand resolution used bare lookups (ident + bare-leaf call);
a cross-module same-leaf collision mistyped the operand. Prefer the
current module. The historic 995 byte-id break attributed to this swap
was contamination from the guard-bug-carrying bundle — re-probed clean
in isolation and at the full stack. The N_DOT module-keyed leaf stays
task #51. Report item [11], lookup half.
The address-of-fn synthesis used a bare lookup — import order could
bind a same-leaf fn from another module, silently LEAQ-ing the wrong
function into a fn-ptr slot. Prefer the current module (mirror
check.c:410/1305). Report item #4 (loud and silent faces pinned).
A type lookup in a bundled build resolved to the newest-installed
same-leaf symbol from ANY module; prefer the current module first
(mirror cstage sym.c:131; the prior attempt's failure was its own
u64-vs-i32 guard bug, not a deeper layer — probe-proven). Also adds
the rule-7 #58 notes at the latent varianterr/scruttype pair and
rewrites the stale deferral block to closing cites. Report item [5].
exprtype N_MATCH took the first arm's yield type without walking the
rest — int-vs-str arms silently produced garbage downstream. Walk all
arms: typeeq-equal accepts; a definite coarse-family mismatch
(num/str/bool via the new yieldclass classifier, unknown classes stay
lenient) rejects. Same-family non-assignable pairs remain lenient —
the documented precision residual is task #52 (needs tinfo-level
type_assignable). The wave's table-driven reject test lands here:
989_catA_f2_reject, 19 rows x 2 stages, each member pre-fix-red-proven.
The F8 multi-success gate counted a `...inner` spread as one variant,
bypassing the multi-success reject. New trycountvariants recursively
flattens spreads (the #209 recursion; cstage check.c:2160). Also
carries the rule-7 deferral cites for the adjacent task-#50/#51 holes
(exprtypeoftry lookups, desugarcallargs fn-ptr bail, checkisas) — the
attempted scopelookupprefer hardening is byte-id-blocked by the #50
curmod layer (evidence in the task).
The size()/align() intercept hid behind a shadow gate with no cstage
twin — a shadowed name silently folded to zero. Intercept
unconditionally and make an unresolvable type a loud error, mirroring
cstage check.c:93/1538; the dead shadow gate is dropped.
wwstage ran no operand-kind check on binary/unary operators: str+str
compiled to integer ADD on the 24B header (silent garbage). Gate each
operator class on the operand kind, mirroring cstage check.c:1186-1238
wording; the pre-existing ptr-arith arm aligns to intkindast so
ptr+untyped_int keeps compiling (byte-id-neutral, the over-reject the
self-compile gate caught). New intkindast/numkindast/boolkindast
predicates.
arrayelen silently folded a non-const dimension to 0 — the 0-sized
slot aliased its neighbor (review item: cs loud / ww rc=0 clobber).
Mirror cstage check.c:715. Test rows land with the wave's final commit.
wwstage computed tagged sizes/tags off the raw variant list — size()
folded wrong constants (size((*u8|void)) 16 vs 8, (i32|never) 16 vs 4)
and duplicate variants got divergent tag numbering vs cstage, while
ww's own cgen layout folded nullable but its size() didn't. Make
tinfofornode's N_TTAGGED arm the normalization SSoT mirroring cstage
resolve_type (check.c:801-882): never-drop, duplicate dedup via
structural typeeq, single-variant collapse, nullable fold on the
normalized pair; astsize/astalign delegate, and voidvariantindex reads
the normalized ti.params (cgen.c:900-911) so construct/match/void tag
readers agree. Corpus-neutral (zero-move on all combineds);
989_tagnorm_run pins the folds dual-stage, red-proven. Review items
#1/#3; residual #45 filed (AST-keyed nullable gate at global emit).
wwstage's desugarcallargs ran no general per-arg typecheck (only the
narrow #258 array-to-slice arm): any mistyped scalar call-arg silently
miscompiled (int read as a 24B slice header; the -T face was a user
const __wwtests building a garbage test binary). Route every call-arg
through the predicate union isassignable()||assignableaddrfn(),
mirroring cstage type_assignable||assignable_addrfn and the check.c:1869
diagnostic. Confident scalar/aggregate and aggregate/aggregate
kind-mismatch rejects live in shared isassignable; the concrete-to-
tagged arm is shape-matched-lenient via tagshape() (AST mirror of cgen
taggedvariantindext) so genuine variant members keep flowing while
shape-mismatched aggregates reject. Reserve __wwtests under -T in both
stages (mirror the main reservation, check.c:2996). New table-driven
989_callarg_typecheck, 31 fixtures, reject rows proven red on pre-fix
binaries.
Deferred, filed, site-commented: the assign seam rides #178->#36
(typeeqast cannot compare variadic/module-qualified fn sigs); the
same-coarse-shape same-leaf nominal collision over-accept rides #37
(#10/#66 — the distinguishing module is absent from the AST surface
isassignable operates on).
wwstage stamped N_RUNELIT as concrete rune (cstage: untyped_rune,
check.c:1296), so an uncast rune literal into a fitting integer slot
over-rejected where harec accepts (promote_flexible). Add coercerunelit
(mirror of coercefloatlit) at the scalar seams — let-init, return,
call-arg, index-store; coarse accept, no range check (mirror cstage
type.c:379); array-literal elements keep the range gate
(arrlit_init_fits, types.c:923). Teeth: the fnmatch.ww '\\': u8
workaround cast and getopttest's 'X': u8 index-store casts are removed
and compile green. Checker-only (no e.type_ restamp): byte-id held.
For an SK_FN sym, exprtype's N_IDENT and N_DOT arms returned decl.lhs
(the return type), so a bare fn rvalue compared as its return type —
latent silent mis-accept of mismatched-signature fn assignment (the
706/768 over-reject under any general check was the visible face).
Synthesize the N_TFN instead (mirror of assignableaddrfn's synth), and
add the N_TFN-vs-N_TFN confident-mismatch reject in isassignable.
harec: resolve_function check.c:4279-4288 (obj->type=fntype),
EXP_ACCESS check.c:341-343 (bare ident yields obj->type, no decay),
call check.c:1573, assignability types.c:1001; cstage twin
check.c:1313 + build_fn_type check.c:2611. cgen is name-keyed on fn
rvalues (never reads the stamp): zero asm delta, byte-id held.
A primary-package top-level decl whose leaf also names a bundled module
(`type sym` vs `import sym`; the lib/test->fnmatch->ascii -T floor's
`ascii` module vs a `@test fn ascii`) collided in the flat scope: #23's
installtop dup-check false-fired "duplicate fn/type" where cstage
coexists. cstage keys the module name out of the value namespace by
PROMOTING the same-leaf SK_USE in place to the value kind with
use_alias=1 (cmd/wcc/check.c:2831/2848/2871/2907/2928/2951), so one
correctly-kinded sym serves bare refs (call/structlit/var) while
`name.member` still resolves the module via the `kind==SK_USE ||
use_alias` N_DOT guards (check.c:87/1337).
This REVERSES wwstage's documented two-sym coexistence design
(lib/ww/sym.ww scopelookupuselocal): keeping the SK_USE as a separate
coexisting sym ripples into every bare-reference resolver (~25
scopelookup sites), and a missed site is a byte-id-consistent-but-wrong
cat-A risk the gate cannot prove away — the same failure mode retired
with the name-keyed variant-match cluster. The promote model is correct
by construction: one sym of the right kind, identical to cstage.
sym gains a use_alias field; the three N_DOT/N_CALL module-qualified
guards honor use_alias. cstage installs every SK_USE in a dedicated
first pass, so its value-arm promote is order-INDEPENDENT; wwstage
installs in source order, so BOTH directions of the collision are
promoted to reach cstage's identical single-sym end state:
- use-before-value (`import aa` then `fn aa`): installtop promotes the
pre-installed SK_USE to the value kind (use_alias=1).
- value-before-use (`fn aa` then `import aa`): installdecl's N_USE arm
promotes the pre-installed value sym in place (set use_alias=1,
no coexisting SK_USE), mirroring cstage's self-import N_USE arm
(check.c:2823-2834 `if (prev) prev->use_alias = 1`).
Both orders compile + are cs/ww byte-identical AND byte-identical to
each other. Cannot split: promote without the guards leaves
`name.member` red on the promoted sym; the guards without promote are
inert (no use_alias is ever set) — no bisect-clean intermediate. (#30)
Pins (910/997): modfn_coexist_ok (use-before-value) AND
modfn_coexist_vbu_ok (value-before-use) both accept on cstage + are
cs/ww byte-id + run to exit 6 (bare fn and qualified module both
resolve); the dup_fn row still rejects both stages (regression). fnmatch
byte-id holds. The order-dependence is exactly what regresses silently,
so both orders are pinned.
installdecl routes all four kinds (fn/type/def/let) through installtop,
which turns scopedefineinmodule's nil return into cstage's exact
"duplicate <kind> <name>" reject, keyed (name,mod) so cross-package
same-leaf decls coexist. Builtin redecls are dropped, not dup-errored:
cstage never scopes builtins (lookup_builtin first, check.c:69), so a
user redecl is dead there — wwstage mirrors via scopesamekeysym +
no-source-decl test. -T synth __wwtests installs direct, mirroring
check.c:3079. Closes the silent dup-fn hole (user fn run vs lib/test
run built a broken test binary with no diagnostic). Per-kind reject
rows + cross-package/builtin accept byte-id rows + -T collision parity
row in 910/997. (#23-team, category-A addendum closed)
lib/test/run.ww: fork+wait4 runner; each @test runs in its own child,
abort/SEGV/FPE decoded from wait-status, failures recorded and the run
continues; exit = fail count. Tests are hermetic: module globals do not
persist test-to-test (fresh fork image; sanctioned divergence from
harec's shared-process __test_main, no setjmp/signal layer needed).
-T synth (both stages) emits a module-global (str,*fn() void) table +
return run(table) instead of straight-line calls. Driver twins bundle
lib/test under test mode and gain ww test -c/-o (go test -c) so the
byte-id gates diff the same artifact the real path builds. Gates
989/910/997 rewired onto it; new 911 pins record-and-continue across
all three fault classes; 949 +3 rows. (#17-team commit-2)
Splice @test N_FNDECLs out of the unit after the body-check passes,
mirroring harec's checked-but-not-emitted: a broken @test body still
errors loudly in non-T; @test-free units are emission-unchanged.
910/997 table rows pin keep/test x non-T/-T, head+consecutive unlink,
undef-body reject, and plain-calls-dropped loud link-fail. w6c+wwdump
combined.ww regen. (#6-team)
check-(c): a package importing itself (any spelling) is a hard error,
mirroring Go. Predicate is leaf==owner at the N_USE/installdecl seam —
sound only after the PREP commits (dotted-test renames, package-less
boundary directive). Identical wording both stages; diagnostics-only,
byte-id-neutral. 948 pins the reject in both compilers; 708's
pos_selfimp (which pinned the abolished self-import skip) converts to
neg_selfimp + new pos_crossmod preserving the param-shadow tolerance
the case existed for. Checks (a) unused and (b)/(d) name-membership
stay deferred to the multi-package arc: imports are filename-keyed
pulls, so those need import->file provenance this compiler lacks.
@test was parsed then dropped (no consumer); `ww test` needed a hand-written
main listing each test by hand, so adding a @test and forgetting the call
silently skipped it. -T makes the checker collect @test N_FNDECLs in source
order, loud-reject a user main, and append a synthetic
`export fn main() i32 { t0(); ...; return 0; }` at the install->body-check seam;
the existing cgfn emits it (cgen untouched) -> byte-identical by construction.
Mirrors harec's checker-side is_test placement.
Plan-9-lean reduction (user-sanctioned, reinstatable post-CSP): sequential,
abort/nonzero=fail; no setjmp isolation, no fnmatch filter, no file:line.
910/997 rewired from a regex scanner to driving `w6c -T` directly (thin trusted
drivers; the @test content stays ww), with a cross-stage byte-id assert on the
-T output. attest_userman/attest_badsig pin the user-main and bad-signature
rejects.
wwstage's tagged→tagged subset-assign arm accepted all (lenient escape), silently miscompiling implicit wide→narrow: a (int|bool|str) holding a str, assigned to (int|bool), ran the int arm and read the str pointer as int. cstage rejects loud; this escape was the lone divergence.
Replace the escape with cstage's subset walk (src ⊆ dst): a src variant is covered iff typeeqast matches (structural — []u8/nested/primitives) OR both are N_TNAME with equal leaf names. The leaf bridge covers cross-module forwards where a callee's bare inline-union variant (utf8's `done`) meets the consumer's qualified `utf8.done` — raw typeeqast can't, and the escape was masking it for every forward. Mirrors casecovers (check.ww:4136). cstage untouched (align-up); spread-bearing unions keep the escape (#199b orthogonal).
Honest floor: leaf-only defers true module identity to #10 — a callee's defining module for an inline-union return is unrecoverable at check-time (the call node is gone; #211 fnretlookupmod is cgen-only). Retained divergence = cross-module same-leaf-collision over-accept (absent from bootstrap), documented at the site and filed as #10-A7 / census cat-A.
Test 989_tagged_subset_reject is table-driven with composition-discriminating rows: []u8 subset (typeeqast-only), bare↔qualified xmod forward (leaf-only), xmod named genuine-absence (reject). 352 green; w6c unchanged, w6c_ww 4b4496b8→4b316f01.
typeeqast's N_TNAME arm compared variant types by SURFACE string
(streq(aa.str, bb.str)), so a cross-module type referenced bare
(oserror) vs qualified (os.oserror) mis-compared unequal -> A6:
concrete->tagged silently mis-identified the variant. Resolve each
name to its canonical type sym before comparing: keep the streq
fast-path, else aliassym(c,aa)==aliassym(c,bb) (ww's existing resolver
maps bare [#53] and qualified [#51] to the same SK_TYPE sym). AST
analog of cstage type.c:278 TY_NAMED a==b / harec types.c:579
ident_equal -- NO interning. `c` threaded into 21 typeeqast sites.
B-full Layer 1: closes A6/#14; Layer 2 (A7 tagged->tagged subset
reject) stays deferred to the #199b flatten arc. Byte-id-neutral;
graduates shlex #59.15 (989 M_WWREJECT->M_ID). test/wcc/839 pins
both-stage symmetry (discriminating teeth = 989 #59.15, per 839 doc).
isassignable's untyped-float (A4) and nil (A5) arms over-accepted a source
into a tagged dst where no variant accepts it -> silent over-accept then
tag-0 miscompile; cstage louds. Reject (cerr + c.errs+=1). Part of the
isassignable tagged-dst over-accept class (#23 fixed arm3; A6/A7 deferred
to the B-full nominal arc). test/wcc/836.
isassignable's untyped-int arm fell through *confident=false/return true,
silently accepting an untyped int into a union whose variant is itself a
nested (non-flattened) union; ww emitted tag=0 (wrong arm) where cstage
louds. Reject unless a direct variant is numeric-or-enum (N_TENUM accept
mirrors cstage type_isnum). Faithful flatten+rebox deferred (nominal
identity, post-CSP). test/wcc/835 (new) + Makefile.
A tuple whose element chases to TY_ARRAY/STRUCT/TUPLE (>8B) silently
miscompiled both stages: t.0[i] read segfaulted and construction dropped
the payload into the 8B slot. Reject the type at resolution (DISP-B);
faithful inline layout deferred to #60. cstage resolve_type N_TTUPLE
(declared) + N_TUPLE expr (inferred literal, was a cstage-only silent
miscompile + cs!=ww asymmetry); wwstage tinfofornode covers both.
test/wcc/832 + 941 migrated.
An inferred-type array global -- let xs = [1,2,3]; -- hard-failed wwstage
with 'asserttyped: int' exit 1, while cstage compiled+ran it. The
array-twin of the inferred-global family (#135 inferred-float, #150-B
inferred-Sym-repoint).
exprtype's N_ARRLIT arm synthesizes the array type for an unannotated
literal but left two synthesized child nodes unstamped: the count literal
(asserttyped trips on it -> the loud failure) and the element TNAME (cgen
then drops a non-scalar element's header load -> the silent miscompile
that merely accepting on alone would introduce: an inferred str-array's
xs[1].len read 24 not 3). Both are now stamped at the synthesis site:
cn.type_ (asserttyped facet) and elt.type_ (cgen facet). Inferred int /
u8 / str / struct / multi-dim array globals + locals + args now compile
byte-identically to the explicit-typed form (== cstage).
cstage unchanged (w6c md5 unchanged); selfhost has no inferred array
globals so byte-id 990-997 8/8, no lib pin flips. test/wcc/833.
An overlong array literal as a tuple element -- let t: ([2]int, i32) =
([1,2,3], 5) -- was silently accepted by wwstage; cstage loud-rejects it.
The #12+#106 over-fill coverage wired checkarrlitfits for direct-array,
slice and alias lhs positions but not the tuple-element position.
wwstage-only checker, reject-align: checkletassign gains an N_TTUPLE arm
that walks the lhs element types (llhs.list) lockstep with the rhs values
(n.rhs.list), calling the existing alias-aware checkarrlitfits per array
element (no-ops scalars, recurses nested arrays). cstage unchanged (w6c
md5 unchanged); reject-only, 990-997 8/8, no lib pin flips. test/wcc/832.
Two sibling tuple-element positions stay open (filed, not folded -- they
are reject-aligns on invalid programs, no selfhost byte-id impact): #25
tuple-RETURN overlong, #26 nested tuple-in-tuple.
An overlong array literal (more initializers than the declared length) is
invalid -- cstage loud-rejects it everywhere -- but wwstage silently
accepted (and truncated) it in several positions; #9 wired only the decl
position. This folds the remaining three (one class: checkarrlitfits
over-fill coverage), all wwstage-only reject-align:
- #12a return fn f() [2]int = [1,2,3] -- silently accepted.
- #12b call-arg g([1,2,3]) -- louded only late via cgen #271.
- #106 alias type A=[2]int; let g: A = [1,2,3] -- silently truncated;
checkarrlitfits bailed on the N_TNAME alias without chasing.
Four inserts in check.ww: an alias-chase (resolvealias) at the top of
checkarrlitfits (makes all callers alias-aware), the over-fill check wired
into checkretassign (hoisted above the isassignable short-circuit) and
desugarcallargs, and the alias-let-global guard made alias-aware. cstage
unchanged (w6c md5 unchanged); reject-only, so no asm moves -- 990-997 8/8,
no lib byte-id pin flips. A 5th position (tuple-element overlong) is a
separate pre-existing hole, filed (#20). test/wcc/828 table-driven.
def S:str = "hi"; S[0] silently segfaulted: a def is a compile-time
constant, never materialized as DATA (unlike let), so indexing it emitted
an unbacked main.S(SB) reference -> cstage ran into frame garbage,
wwstage link-failed. str[i] itself is valid ww (a deliberate Go-like
str[i]->u8 byte-index that lib/strings compare/dup depend on), so the fix
is narrow: the N_INDEX TY_STR arm now rejects an index whose operand is a
bare SK_DEF scalar-str symbol, both stages -- 'cannot index a def-constant
str; bind it to a let'. INDEX-ONLY: len(S) and &S are already loud, and a
def's .len/.ptr field reads (the load-bearing w6l INTERP) are N_DOT, a
different arm, and stay valid.
A rule-9 WHY-comment records str[i]->u8 as a sanctioned divergence from
Hare's strings.toutf8. The full make-it-work fold (len(S)->2, S[0]->byte)
is deferred (#16). byte-id 990-997 8/8. test/wcc/821 table-driven.
An explicit [N]T = [init] with more initializers than N silently
mis-compiled for N==0: the over-fill length-mismatch check was suppressed
when alen==0, because alen==0 doubles as the [_] infer-sentinel after
resolve_type collapses the two. So def/let [0]int=[1,2] silently resized
(cstage exit 2) or OOB-read/segfaulted (wwstage) instead of the loud
length-mismatch that [N]=[init>N] gets everywhere else.
The AST keeps the distinction the Type loses: [_] leaves the N_TARRAY
length-child NULL, an explicit [N] carries N_INTLIT. cstage adds an
is_infer_arr() helper, drops the alen>0 exemption at the over-fill check,
and gates the 4 infer-resize/no-init sites on is_infer_arr so an explicit
[0] flows to the over-fill -> loud. wwstage flips the one shared count
gate (checkarrlitfits) from declen>0 to arrtn.rhs!=nil, which also
dissolves a wwstage local-resize/module-OOB inconsistency.
[_] inference, [0]=[] empty, and [_]-no-init louding all preserved.
Under-long (count<N) stays out of scope (#10). byte-id 990-997 8/8.
test/wcc/820 table-driven; its one empty-[0] global row carves out
byte-id (pre-existing spurious-DATAW divergence, task #15).
.cap on a fixed-size array is invalid (Hare has no capacity-read; arrays
can't grow) -> both stages now loud-reject at the checker. wwstage was
silently returning frame garbage for a local array's .cap; cstage typed
it then vaguely rejected at use. Unified to one early checker reject with
an identical diagnostic both stages.
.ptr on a fixed-size array is ratified VALID: array.ptr is &A[0], a
sanctioned ww spelling divergence from Hare; see task #13. The toolchain
already relies on it in 14 backing-pointer sites. WHY-doc added at both
checker .ptr-on-array sites. The def-global .ptr cgen base-selection bug
(#11) is a separate following commit.
Valid-program asm unchanged (byte-id 990-997 8/8); w6c/w6c_ww binaries
move (checker code changed). test/wcc/817 table-driven, model 684.
def xs:[_]T=arrlit was sized 0 (no DATA emitted, garbage indexed reads) on BOTH stages, byte-id-identical: #7 wired [_] length-inference only on the let decl path, never def. cstage check.c N_DEF pass-2 infers the length from the initialiser and re-points both d->type and the SK_DEF Sym (an indexed read resolves the def through its Sym); wwstage check.ww runs inferarraylen before resolvewalk. Checker-only — cgen lays the DATA correctly once the length is stamped. w6c and wwdump combined.ww regen'd (both embed the wcc checker).
Pin: table-driven test/wcc/814_def_arr_infer_len (index reads int/u8/2d + 1-elem edge + negative build-fail), teeth-proven against a reverted inference. Filed separately, not folded (rule-11): def-global .len GAP-A (#7 cgdot twin), def str-array element DATA GAP-B (#270), [0]T-vs-[_] alen==0 conflation (pre-existing in the #7 let path too).
A def-dimensioned array [MAX]u8 used as a struct field was BOTH-WRONG: cstage
loud-rejected ("array length must be an integer literal"); wwstage silently
sized the dim to 0, so the next field overlapped it (frame-smash). The
reference is neither stage — it is Hare: accept + fold the def.
cstage: fold the def into the dim via eval_def_const. The fold needs def NAMES
visible when resolve_typedecl walks struct bodies, so a stub loop binds
def-name stubs (type=NULL, filled in place by the existing def loop) before
resolve_typedecl — this extends check_file's existing names-first USE+TYPEDECL
pass to DEFs; def-TYPE resolution stays in its original order, and the
kind-filtered type lookup (#225) keeps the SK_DEF stub out of type position.
wwstage: one shared arrayelen(c, rhs) (INTLIT -> uval; else evaldefconst;
else 0) routed through astsize / tinfofornode / checkarrlitfits.
Closes#13's def-dim cstage-reject half (the slice-repeat clause stays open).
Pin test/wcc/951 (5 rows incl a cross-module os.PATH_MAX dim + a ~4KB shape;
teeth = cstage loud-reject + ww frame-smash). cgen-first blocker for the
path::buffer arc (type buffer = struct{[MAX]u8, ...}).
A module-global let with a const-expr init (let s = 7*6) emitted NO DATA word: cstage LINK-FAILed (undefined main.s, loud), wwstage was SILENT (no DATA, MOVSXD on stale AX, exit 152). The DEF pass-2 arm already const-folds + stamps its rhs to N_INTLIT (the #88 eval_def_const/stamp_intlit machinery); the LET pass-2 arm omitted it. Mirror it: after the assignability check, fold the rhs and stamp N_INTLIT when the plain-literal fold missed AND the const-fold succeeded. The existing DATA-emit downstream then fires (DATAW 42 + load). Both stages, byte-identical. Closes the inferred const-expr global and the typed b-ii case (let s:i64=7*6, link-fail both stages) with one stamp.
Gated on genuine int-const success (the eval return value, not the out-param): str/struct/slice/call/runtime-operand rhs short-circuit before the stamp and are left untouched — never zeroed. Non-const rhs stays on its current loud route; div-by-zero stays loud. Latent in selfhost (no const-expr module globals → 990-997 byte-id unchanged).
Pin: 947 rows C1 inferred 7*6, C2 typed b-ii, C3 def-ref K*7, C4 unary-over-binop, C5 div-by-zero loud-guard; cs==ww byte-id.
A cross-module `&module.fn` in a const emitted no static reloc (the
const was never defined -> w6l undefined-reference, both stages) and
wwstage's checker rejected the const fn-table. #117/#119 wired the
&fn->DATAR const-data reloc for SAME-module &fn only; charclass_map
(fold-6) needs cross-module (12x &ascii.isXXX).
cgen: add the N_DOT arm to the &fn->symbol helper (node_fnptr_sym /
nodefnptr + the two ww emit sites), emitting mafn(leaf, module-ident)
-- exactly the symbol a runtime &mod.fn or a direct cross-module call
already emits. The helper is the SSoT for both the scalar (#119) and
tuple-row (#117) const-data paths, so one arm closes both.
checker: type a cross-module `&mod.fn` as `*fn(...)` in the TK_AMP arm
(the N_DOT twin of #206's N_IDENT fn-ptr synthesis, gated on a resolved
SK_FN/N_FNDECL leaf), so isassignable affirmatively accepts the const
table -- aligning wwstage UP to cstage's actual acceptance reason
rather than by abdication. The SK_FN gate keeps a non-fn `&mod.var`
from synthesizing a fn type (the one pre-existing nonfn-scalar cs!=ww
slip is N_IDENT-base, untouched and reproduces same-module).
One consumer-coupled commit (the checker accept gates wwstage cgen, so
neither half is independently testable). Narrow: slice-row + scalar
only; fixed-array (#118) and struct-field (#129) stay separate. Both
stages emit the correct cross-module symbols at the right tuple-slot
offsets -> byte-identical (990-997 green). Pin 949_xmod_fnptr_const_run
(distinct fns so a wrong reloc is caught + the SK_FN-gate axis). This
was the last fold-6 cgen blocker; charclass_map is now unblocked.
wwstage's checker rejected a `case let t: ((void|size),(void|size),
size) =>` arm against a (tuple|error) scrutinee ("case: not a variant
of scrutinee"), while cstage accepts and runs it. typeeqast's N_TTUPLE
arm recurses per-element, but a tagged element (void|size) is
N_TTAGGED -> fell to the conservative catch-all `return false`, so the
whole tuple-compare failed. typeeqast is the sole acceptance route
(casevariantpairmatch is N_TNAME-only).
Add an N_TTAGGED arm to typeeqast, sibling of N_TTUPLE, mirroring
cstage type.c:288-300 (type_eq TY_TAGGED): position-by-position
variant compare over the tagged node's .list (direct nodes, not
.lhs-wrapped). cstage's nullable-flag check is deliberately not ported
(resolved-Type property, no ww AST analogue; moot for case-match).
A spread variant (TK_ELLIPSIS) in the .list is loud-rejected rather
than compared: a naive streq would silently accept a `...ab` case that
cstage rejects (a new cs!=ww over-accept the bare arm introduced).
Flattening the spread is deferred (#115); until then it louds, matching
cstage.
ww-only (cstage already accepts); the gap-A cgen store landed in
6a5bb3e. wwstage now accepts the b1c match and runs the full shape
byte-identical to cstage -> #47 (both gaps) closed. The deferred
full-b1c row in 944_tuple_tagged_union_run is promoted to a both-stage
runtime row. Checker change is acceptance-only/additive -> bootstrap
byte-id neutral (990-997 green).
cstage type_default(TY_UNTYPED_INT) returned ty_i32 (4B): an unannotated
`let x = <v>` / `let a = [<v>,..]` silently TRUNCATED any value > 2^31
(5000000000 -> 705032704) and strode inferred arrays at 4. wwstage kept
the element raw untyped_int (size 0), which sized INCONSISTENTLY across
cgen — the array STORE strode the 8 sentinel but letslotsize under-
allocated the frame (SEGV) and cgindex strode the READ at 1. The two
stages were each wrong differently; #263 polarity: cstage was the
truncating side. int = machine word = 8B (Go-style, MEMORY
project_int_machine_word_derived_limits); Hare lowers a flexible iconst
to `int`, never a fixed i32 (ref/harec/src/types.c:835).
Fix, one root, both stages (FUSE — the cs default + the ww concrete
element must land together, else the inferred array is transient cs!=ww):
- cmd/wcc/type.c type_default(TY_UNTYPED_INT) ty_i32 -> ty_int. The
root; stops scalar AND array truncation at source.
- cmd/wcc/check.c N_ARRLIT empty-elt fallback ty_i32 -> ty_int. Symmetric
pair; count-0 array emits no stores, so byte-id-neutral.
- selfhost/cmd/wcc/check.ww exprtype N_ARRLIT: default the inferred
element's untyped flavor to concrete (untyped_int->int, _float->f64,
_str->str, _rune->rune, _bool->bool, mirror cstage type_default),
empty-elt "i32"->"int", and stamp the synthesized N_TARRAY's .type_ so
slotsize / elemsizeofc / letslotsize read its real [N]int size via the
type table (rule-13) — no letslotsize special-case (SSoT).

c1/c2 widened flatvariantidxt (selfhost) with the chain + structural
tag-synthesis arms and a >=2 ambiguity os.exit, scoped to the cgen
WIDEN consumer. But flatvariantidxt is a choke-point: the wwstage is/as
ACCEPTANCE gate (check.ww:4677, the #198 spread fallback) reuses it, so
the widening leaked into checker acceptance — vs base 329481c:
* `let v:(void|ali)=…; v is base` (ali=base): cstage rejects, wwstage
ACCEPTED+built — new cs!=ww acceptance divergence (rule-10 break);
* `(void|tb)`, `v is ta` (unrelated same-layout): same leak via the c2
structural arm;
* `(ali|ali2)`, `v is base`: wwstage DIED with the cgen-internal fatal
"flatvariantidxt: source alias chain reaches >=2 variants" DURING
CHECK — a cgen diag surfacing in the checker (layering).
cstage is unaffected: its is/as gate (check.c:2036) is independent of
cg_tag_for_variant (cgen-phase only), so the fuse was already broken at
this site — the cgen-helper change moved wwstage's CHECKER but not
cstage's. This contradicts the #95 fold scope ("cgen-tag fold, no
acceptance change except the ambiguity hard-error [at the widen site]").
Fix (rob-ruled): the is/as gate needs only nominal variant membership =
pass 1. Add an explicit `exactonly` mode to flatvariantidxt — the
checker caller passes true (returns after the exact loop: no chain/
structural arms, no os.exit), every cgen caller passes false (full
tag-synthesis, unchanged). Two consumers, two modes — the honest
representation, not a wrapper. cstage's cg_tag_for_variant has no twin
checker caller, so it stays full-only and is UNTOUCHED by c3 (rule-10
satisfied: the param changes no asm — cgen always passes false; the
checker now MATCHES cstage's reject). casevariantin still backs the
#198 spread fallback.
Pins (test/wcc/944_variant_chain_b95_run.c, +4 rows -> 56 checks):
isas_chain_reject / isas_unrel_reject — BOTH stages reject the leaked
is/as shapes (shared experr substring "not a variant"); the c1 chain +
c2 structural arms no longer widen acceptance.
isas_amb_reject_notcrash — the (ali|ali2)/`is base` shape rejects
CLEANLY (the cgen fatal text would be absent -> red), NOT a crash.
twin_prim_alias_amb — rob's obligated mixed prim/alias TWIN:
(int | ai) ai=int, source aj=int — both share the int bottom under
all-variants counting, so the cgen WIDEN (full mode) hard-errors
("source alias chain reaches >=2 variants"), pinned LOUD both stages.
The deferred question (should is/as EVER accept cgen's richer chain/
structural shapes? = a checker-strictness feature, both stages together)
is filed as task #107, explicitly NOT folded here.
Invariants: c1/c2 cgen behavior unchanged (all cgen callers pass false =
full mode); suite byte-id rows + the dissolution corpus hold. make all
0; sizelint 0; peellint 0 (the mode param adds no peel sites); combined.ww
regen idempotent; test-unit "all 295 tests passed". c3 touches ZERO
cstage bytes — cmd/w6c/cgen.c carries only the c1/c2 additions, and
cmd/wcc/check.c is unchanged from base 329481c.
checkarrlitfits' nested recursion keyed on the raw elemtn kind; a
named-alias element type ([2]row, row=[2]int) arrives as N_TNAME, so
the inner overlong literal skipped the count+range checks and the
module static-DATA route emitted silently TRUNCATED data (ken's
m7c_global: DATAW 1,2,4,5 — exit-masked once the #60 read fix removed
the segv; cstage loud-rejects every spelling via its typed-literal
assignability net). #105: the W1 fill gate never runs on this route,
severity raised post-#60.
Fix: chase elemtn through resolvealias (transitive) at the recursion
gate — alias spellings of any depth take the same checks as the
direct shape at all four contexts funneling through the choke point
(module let / local let / def / struct-field). A direct N_TARRAY
passes through resolvealias unchanged, so accepted shapes are
byte-identical base→tip (m7c_global_ok + exact-fit alias
field/def/2lvl probed ASM-ID vs a base scratch build). The m7/m7b
local overlong rows stay loud, now via the earlier count-naming
checker diagnostic instead of the cgen #270-1c fatal. The
out-of-range narrow inner element louds "array element out of
range" exactly as the direct spelling already did on wwstage.
808_arrlit_overlong: 37 -> 50 checks (+1 accept control
alias_exact_module = ken's m7c_global_ok with a byte-id cell, +4 loud

989 ratchet zero flips — no lib module-level literal trips the gate.
Filed sibling, not folded: OUTER alias-of-array overlong
(let g: arr = [5 elems], arr=[4]int) still ww-silent-truncates at the

F2a batch-4 c4. RE-PROBED AFTER c1 per spec: still live at the c3
train base with a REBUILT w6c_ww (the mechanical tichase collapse
didn't cover it — this read is AST-node-keyed, not tinfo-keyed).
REPRO (.ai/scratch/repro_f2a1_b4.ww): `untyped_lit * rangevar` over a
range-for of an alias-typed slice (`type slk = []int`) — wwstage
checker dies "asserttyped: bin" at the binop; cs accepts and runs 0.
TRACE: check.ww resolvewalk N_FORRANGE bare-binder arm — the binder's
element type comes from kind-testing the scrutinee's type expr
(N_TSLICE/N_TARRAY), but an alias-typed iterable arrives as N_TNAME:
both tests miss, the binder falls to the N_FORRANGE fallback decl,
stays untyped, and the first binop over it bails. cs twin types the
binding at scope_define (check.c N_FORRANGE) — accepts.
FIX (single site, the one the repro traces to, per grant): dealias
via the existing resolvealias(unwrapbang(it)) idiom before the kind
tests. The TUPLE-DESTRUCTURE arm carries the same unresolved tests
but is NOT in-grant (fixing the bare arm is not a no-op, so the
re-spelling clause does not apply) — FILED as task #97; currently
double-masked bounded-loud (cs louds upstream at #270-1c so the
alias-tuple-slice iterable is unconstructible on cs; ww asserttyped).
Rows (944): rangevar_alias2 (the repro, cs0/ww-reject -> 0/0 byte-id)

(checker-acceptance-only change; no alias range-for in corpus).
combined.ww regens ride along.
F2a batch-4 c3, the check.ww behavior pair (exact set). Both cs twins
ALREADY full-chase at this SHA — ww-only align-up, no fuse:
B1 (check.ww:2038 census line; peel was at :2041 post-c1): the
`...inner` spread member peeled ONE level, so a 2-level-alias inner
union escaped the TY_TAGGED splice test and rode as a SURFACE member —
the outer box sized off the inner union's own header (probe sp_alias2:
runtime 0/0 BOTH but byte-DIVERGE, ww frame $48 vs $32). cs twin
chases (check.c:755 type_chase_named, the spec's :660-667 cite moved).
Fix: vu = tichase(vu) under the isspread gate, mirroring cs's
`spread ? type_chase_named(vt) : vt`. sp_alias2 graduates 0/0 byte-id;
sp_alias1 1-level control held throughout.
B2 (check.ww:2273/:2275): the &x.len/&x.cap base walk hand-peeled
NAMED->PTR->NAMED one level per hop — 2-level alias bases fell out of
the slice/str detect and took the generic *opt typing. cs twin chases
both hops (check.c:1198-1201). Fix: tichase per hop, exact cs mirror.
B2 ROUTE-TRACE (flagged, not edited): the spec's "post 0/0" cell for
amplen2 is NOT achievable inside this grant — OBSERVED pre-fix that
ww dies LATER at the cgen ADDRESS tail ("unsupported address-of
shape") for ALL alias bases 1+ LEVEL (cs runs 0): task #96 (ken
b4-oracle), a cgenexpr.ww site outside c3's check.ww set. The chase
here aligns the stamped type only (latent until #96); rows pinned
LOUD-HOLD via the new K_RUN_CS_WWERR kind (cs builds+runs; the ww
build must keep FAILING loud with the pinned diagnostic — a silent
ww accept-and-run is the regression the bound row exists to catch),
citing #96; they graduate K_RUN with it. Also OBSERVED: the let-init
spelling (`let s: sl1 = [1,2,3]`) is blocked further upstream by the
rows use the param route.
Pin rows (944): sp_alias1 K_RUN hold, sp_alias2 K_RUN graduation,
amplen_plain K_RUN control hold, amplen1/amplen2/ampcap2
K_RUN_CS_WWERR LOUD-HOLD bound on #96 (ww leg asserts "unsupported
address-of shape"). 944: 196/196.
Corpus: five-mains NEUTRAL vs base on identical inputs, cs==ww holds
(both clusters zero-in-corpus). combined.ww regens ride along.
check_file resolved typedecl bodies in file order with an eager
under->size copy, so any body referencing a typedecl declared LATER
read its size-0 placeholder and baked it in: alias size 0, tagged-
union maxsz 0 (the F0 m5_match $48-frame under-allocated box), struct
field offsets collapsed, array element stride 0 — a whole cstage-only
family (7 size()-probe rows, all cs-fail/ww-pass pre-fix). wwstage's
demand-driven tinfofornode was order-independent on every row, so this
aligns cstage UP to the measured runtime-correct side (the #263-era
ruling; rule 10's align-down governs acceptance surface, not layout
correctness). Oracle: ken /tmp/ken_62_oracle.md — union size is 8B tag
+ roundup8(max CHASED member size), a fixed point over the module,
never a function of decl order.
resolve_typename now resolves a referenced-but-unresolved typedecl on
demand via resolve_typedecl (cycle-guarded by Type.resolving); the
pass-1.5 loop funnels through the same helper. No consumer can see an
unresolved placeholder by construction.
CYCLE GUARD — #69 ABSORBED into this rider (rob's rider condition):
true typedecl cycles now LOUD-reject on BOTH stages — "circular type
dependency" — mirroring harec's in_progress check (ref/harec/src/
check.c:4767 "Circular dependency for '%s'"). Pre-guard: cs silently
sized cycles 0; wwstage HUNG on an alias cycle (`type a = b; type
b = a` — ken's hang probe /tmp/ken62/c1_cycle.ww, killed at the 20s
timeout) and stack-overflowed on a struct value cycle. The check sits
at the VALUE-position size consumers only (alias root, struct field,
array elem, tuple member, union member), so the legal pointer
self-ref (`type node = struct { next: *node }`, the io.stream shape)
stays accepted, byte-id. wwstage gets the twin tinfo.resolving flag
(lib/ww/typ.ww) + circularnamed in check.ww; its arm loud-STOPS
(os.exit) rather than accumulating — wwstage's AST-level alias
walkers (resolvealias, aliaslookup chains) follow TNAME->TNAME by
name, blind to the tinfo table, and spin on a cyclic alias graph even
after the table edge is cut to tyerr (measured); cstage accumulates,
its single-peel ternaries cannot loop.
TWO-LAYER SPLIT — this is ONE bug number (#62) deliberately split
across THREE commits (this rider + F1 + F2), per ken's sizes-correct ≠
payload-correct proof: in NORMAL decl order both stages size the box
correctly (16/24, frames $64) yet both still run exit 2 — the box
STORE is word0-only, a chase-blind copy-WIDTH lookup in cgen, NOT the
type table. EXPECTED-FAIL after this commit: m5b_match1/m5_match stay
exit-2 both stages (now byte-id BOTH orders; pre-fix the fwd order was
$48-frame divergent). The Layer-2 sites and destinations:
- F1 (cstage): cg_widen_tagged_store single NAMED peel,
cmd/w6c/cgen.c ~2464 — the type_chase_named census family.
- F2 (wwstage): rhsstructpayload bare name-keyed structlookup, no
alias chase, selfhost/cmd/wcc/cgenutil.ww:3062 (structlookupchain
:1691 already exists).
Banked runtime payload-readback rows for F1/F2: /tmp/impl62r_layer2_rows.md.
Test 944_alias_decl_order_size_run: every size class pinned in BOTH
decl orders (sizes, named union, struct field offsets, array elem,
2-level chain — norm + fwd twins, prefix-luck-breaking last-word
readbacks), 3 cycle BUILDERR rows + the legal ptr-self-ref row,
(void|base) no-regress control; dual-stage + per-row byte-id (arrelem
rows byte-id exempt: pre-existing #60 index-over-alias divergence,
order-independent, cited at the rows). lib/ww/typ.ww is an embedded
source: both main.combined.ww regen'd + committed (freshness gate).
For an annotation-less `let p = pt{...}` checkletassign planted exprtype's
N_STRUCTLIT result — the struct decl's BODY node (N_TSTRUCT, per #66) — as
the let's type. Every cgen local-arm dispatch (cgdot read, cgassign
tagged-field store, the alias peel) is N_TNAME-keyed, so the body matched
no arm: field reads fell to the module-qualified fallback and emitted the
FIELD NAME as a global symbol (MOVQ f(SB) — link-fail, #211 name-leak
family; silent corruption if a same-named global exists), and a tagged-
field assign fell to the assign-resolver TY_TAGGED loud bound. Both PG5
wwstage symptoms, one root; plain structs leaked too. Normalizing the
inferred binding to the synthesized TNAME (mktname + tinfofornode stamp)
routes every consumer down the already-byte-id annotated path. cstage
needs no twin: check.c:1477 clet carries Sym.type (tinfo) and its
emission is annotation-invariant (probed). Test 811: 10 rows x 2 drivers
+ 10 asm-byte-id; pre-fix wwstage link-fails every unannotated row
(incl. the `...` autofill and parenthesized forms; nested s.f.g ran
but cs!=ww asm).
slot = roundup8(size(elem)) — 8B is a FLOOR, not a ceiling (user-
ratified 2026-06-04; the #237 fieldslotsize precedent; (str,str)=48B
predates this — tagged was the one truncated >8B kind). Pre-fix the
checkers truncated a tagged element to one 8B slot and every cgen
transport walk strode wide=(STR||SLICE)-else-8: cstage read the
NEIGHBOR slot, wwstage read ZEROS — both-wrong-differently, so the
byte-id gates were blind (prober-9 PG1, /tmp/p9).
One stride accessor per stage — tuple_eslot (cgen.c) / tupeslot
(cgenstmt.ww) — now feeds every tuple walk; the per-site predicates
are deleted as absorbed. Sizer: check.c N_TTUPLE + check.ww
tupleelemslot gain the TY_TAGGED arm (astsize already rides the type
table since commit 0). Routes flipped to the accessor, both stages
symmetric: cursor producers (lit/slot-to-cursor; tagged ident
elements load their box from the slot — cgexpr's tagged ident load
is word0-only), let-receive (tuple_store/tupstore generalized to
eslot/8 words), N_RETURN send, by-value param receive, arg
restage/drain (tagged stays loud per C-t2), destructure
(MLET/MASSIGN, ident + sret + in-cap), t.N read + len(t.N) +
global-g.N offset walks (t.N gains the tagged box load: AX=tag,
DX/CX/R8=payload — the is/as spill cursor), sret classifier, DATA
emit. wwstage cgtagvariantidx gains the #67 stamped-carrier arm
(flatvariantidxt on .type_) — its AST-only key silently clamped
't.0 is size' to tag 0; fused here because the tuple-element read
this commit wires is its only exercisable consumer.
Exit invariant: zero silent tagged-tuple paths — in-cap shapes
(<=4 GP eightbytes) are correct end-to-end; everything else is LOUD:
over-cap sret return (#22b, task #28), call-arg (C-t2 #32),
non-local literal element sources (#22b/#23), tuple-in-union payload
(#242/#22b), global static-init, element write (pre-existing).
Closure proof-grep at HEAD: 'tuple_ebytes|tupebytes' -> 0 hits;
'wide.*=.*(TY_SLICE|TY_STR)' tuple-walk survivors are all behind
tagged loud-guards (cgen.c:2535/2568/12013 widen-store + over-cap
send; cgenutil.ww:3527 twin).
Latent cross-checks closed by the accessor: wwstage MLET-sret strode
esz (4 for i32) vs cstage 8; wwstage param-receive strode slotsize
(composite slotsize) vs cstage 8; both now the accessor's floor-8.
Tagged inits in pins use the CAST form (5: size) — the bare
untyped-int widen-store mis-tag is pre-existing at master and filed
(task #33).
941 gains 13 rows: t22_* size/align folds (+ void-elem 0-slot pin),
the full runtime round-trip (read, is/as, both element orders, void
variant, destructure, literal-let), two-tagged-elem in-cap and
float+tagged in BOTH orders (ken k1/k2 regression-pinned as rows),
t.N-as-call-arg, 5 loud pins (arg, over-cap return, call-source
element, global init, element write), and the sret_narrow_mix_*
triple below. Runtime rows exit-checked under both drivers +
byte-id. 129/129; unit tests green; sizelint clean.
ken R1 (re-validation fix): an OVER-CAP tuple init whose rhs is not a
CALL fell past every cstage N_LET store arm to NOTHING — silent
uninitialized-frame reads — while wwstage loud-rejected the same
shape. Pre-existing for (str,str) literals; the #22a tagged slots
routed >16B-box tagged shapes into it (k5b/k5c/k5d, base-correct
because base truncated them in-cap). cstage now routes the rhs
through cgexpr (the cursor materialisers carry the exact wwstage
loud texts) with a trailing fatal as the net; 941 pins both the
tagged and the (str,str) spellings of the hole.
reviewer-22 (review fixes, folded): the MLET-receive slot flip above
landed ALONE on the wwstage over-cap sret family — the ww RETURN-send
and MASSIGN-receive still strode packed esz (4 for u32), so
`let (a,b,c) = f()` over (str,u32,str) read c at slot offset 32 while
ww's send wrote it packed at 28: a ww runtime REGRESSION vs base
(base was packed-consistent on both sides — ran right, byte-diff).
Both walks now stride the slot (send mirrors cstage's
`wide ? esz : 8`; MASSIGN strides tupeslotn) — closing, in the same
stroke, the pre-existing base skews: ww `let t = f()` over-cap
narrow-mix read (reader slot-laid vs send packed, runtime-wrong at
base) and the cs≠ww asm on all three routings. Second find: t.N
tagged element as a CALL ARG — cstage rides its generic
node_istaggedarg cursor push, but wwstage's kind-gated aistagged
missed N_DOT and mis-routed the box into the widening branch
(taggedvariantindex -1 clamped to 0: callee read variant 0, silent,
ww-only). cgenutil.ww gains the N_DOT arm (aistagged + pushargsrev),
the #67 stamped-carrier twin of the N_INDEX (#12) arm. The N_DOT arm
was a LIVE wwstage stdlib miscompile: hextest's import graph carried
two t.N tagged-arg sites (base .s diff = exactly the clamped-tag
PUSHQ pair) — the 989 lib-byteid ratchet caught the convergence and
#59.4 graduates to M_ID (runtime-correct per 979_hex_run). Probes:
/tmp/r22. Residual filed: tagged arg from deref/cast/unwrap sources
is a word0-only read on BOTH stages (pre-existing, base-confirmed) —
generalizing wwstage's kind gate to cstage's type-keyed check rides
that task.
The wwstage size()/align() fold walks the AST (astsize), and its
N_TTUPLE arm still summed PACKED element sizes — C-t0 flipped the
checker type table (tupleelemslot) and cstage's N_TTUPLE to the
ratified slot layout but missed this second wwstage sizer.
size((u32,u32)) folded to 16 on cstage and 8 on wwstage: a silent
cs≠ww in every folded tuple-size constant, plus the recursive
escapes (a tuple inside struct/array size computation under the
fold). Runtime-confirmed at 74767c7.
astsize N_TTUPLE now reads the tuple tinfo, making tupleelemslot
the single wwstage tuple sizer; the tagged-element slot fix (#22
22a) lands in that one place next. 941 gains c0_sizefold_slot +
c0_sizefold_recursive rows (exit-checked under both drivers +
byte-id).
