The driver flip moves build artifacts from next-to-source <stem>.s to a
.sepwork/ scratch dir. 29 Pattern-B gates now build `ww build --sep -o <stem>`
and read <stem>.sepwork/__root.s (multi-package gates concat all
<stem>.sepwork/*.s, since cross-package labels live in per-package .s).
All intermediates redirect to /tmp (WW_PKGCACHE + -o), so the corpus runs
parallel-safe with no source-tree pollution. Tests pass now (--sep is live)
and survive the flip.
915 additionally retargeted off strconv's PRIVATE left_shift_table (a let,
not export) — which separate compilation correctly hides — onto a test-local
package that exports its own probe table (#96). The combined path only linked
it via a single-unit private leak; encapsulation is now honored under sep.
Test-only; all 5 *_ww binaries HOLD. 989_m1mangle_run deferred (blocked by
#99, imported-package fn main mangling under sep).
rhstaggedabicall keyed the tagged-vs-scalar call-source decision off the
callee result type looked up by leaf NAME (fnretlookupmod), with the
receiver variable used as the "module". A value-receiver fn-ptr field
call s.f(...) whose leaf collides with a same-named global fn then
mis-bound the global's register shape, so the source was misclassified
as scalar and widened wrong: silent cs/ww asm divergence and wrong
runtime. Read the checker-stamped N_CALL result type (src.type_)
instead, mirroring the N_DOT sister branch. cstage already reads u->ret
off the typed callee (cmd/wcc/check.c:1490) and harec selects by
interned type id, not name (ref/harec/src/types.c:714).
Graduates test/wcc/782 to STAGE_WW + byte_id.
wwstage exprtype's N_CALL arm fell into a global-leaf scopelookup for an
N_DOT callee with a value or chained receiver, binding whatever same-named
global headed the scope bucket. Under a late-os combined.ww concat order
this resolved io's `s.read(...)` to os.read (i64) instead of the field's
fn type, so checkretassign confidently rejected a valid tagged return — an
import-order-sensitive false positive. cstage resolves a call result solely
from the callee expr's own type (check.c:1378-1433, mirroring harec
check_autodereference 1566-1581); drop the global-leaf else-arm so value
and chained receivers fall through to the existing fn-VALUE path at
check.ww:2455. SK_USE module-qualified calls are unchanged.
ww has no methods, so `value.leaf()` is only ever a fn-ptr field access; the
global hit was never legitimate. Zero .s delta across all 5 bootstrap tools
(the branch is dead in the bootstrap); test 776 graduates to both stages
(os-late order, byte-identical).
The fix unmasks a pre-existing wwstage cgen bug (#211): cgen also re-derives
a call's return shape by name (fnretlookup), so a value-receiver field call
whose leaf collides with a same-named global of a different register shape
mis-resolves cs!=ww. Documented at the cgen site; pinned cstage-only by
test/wcc/782 (graduates to STAGE_WW on #211 close).
