Do not upgrade SVs into utf8 just because they participate
in eq or cmp.  Reported and fix suggested in

Subject: [ID 20000720.009] sv_eq UTF8 bug
Message-Id: <20000721043729.30081.qmail@othersideofthe.earth.li>

Exercise for the kind reader: should we or should we not
cache the utf8 conversion alongside the SV? (as magic,
as the strxfrm()ed version is cached under use locale)
Argue both for and against.
