Description Muktha 2005-11-10 12:09:30 UTC 
The string comparison function always returns the result as 'passed'
irrespective of the strings passed for comparison. Even for strings that are not
same, the result obtained is 'passed'.

Attaching a patch that fixes this issue.

Wow, thanks for catching this. I just committed a fix - your patch was good, and
is very much appreciated. I had to make several other fixes to the module to
both safeguard against this type of thing in the future, and fix unit tests that
were broken by it.

TC's unit tests really need to be rewritten :(
