wwstage compiled str ==/!= as a single CMPQ on the eager-eval'd ptr word
(len ignored), so two distinct-pointer equal-content strings compared
unequal. cstage was already correct (CALLs rt_streq, the #154 cbinop fix).
The wwstage cgbin had no str-awareness -- every comparison fell to the
generic CMPQ tail; the #154 fix was never mirrored.
wwstage-only: a cgstreqpush helper + a str ==/!= branch at the top of
cgbin (before the generic eval collapses the header), byte-matching cstage
cbinop:4564-4623 -- push rhs/lhs (len,ptr), POPQ DI/SI/DX/CX, CALL
rt_streq, XORQ $1 for !=. Gated on typeisstr (= cstage node_isstr, which
also catches module-global str idents). cstage cgen unchanged (w6c md5
unchanged). The str== .s is byte-identical cs==ww for local, global,
aliased, chained, and condition operands.
Graduates 3 lib byte-id pins (test/wcc/989_lib_byteid #59.1 asciitest,
#59.11 toktest, #59.12 asttest) M_DIVERGE->M_ID -- they used == on str and
were pinned divergent because of this bug; now byte-identical. byte-id
990-997 8/8. test/wcc/827 table-driven.
