First off, I'm not sure that's where it came from.  Secondly, it still
sounds like a pretty good suggestion to me.  StrEq doesn't set off warning
flags that it is even a macro, much less a macro with a warning comment in
some include file.  STREQ, however, tells me right away not to go passing
(a++, b++) to it.  A helpful suggestion is a helpful suggestion
_whatever the source_.
