It seems bizarre that Seaside would have a test that explicitly compares 
two unicode strings but yet not all the smalltalk platforms can support 
this using #=.. it would *really* suck if #= couldn't be used in the 
general code base for safely comparing two strings. (If you have to do 
it in the test, then you, in theory, probably need to do it everywhere).

Can someone speak to the platforms that have trouble with #= here?
