That works for me.  Are there any other requirements, a natively
compiled Emacs or so?

Or maybe "make bootstrap" (i.e. building Emacs from scratch) helps?

If not, are you able to provide a test case?  AFAIU the `pcase' call
causing the trouble fails to compare strings correctly.

If you compile and load a function like

(defun test (string)
  (pcase string
    ("a" 1)
    (_ nil)))

does that work as expected?


TIA,

Michael.
