Lifts the Int-only restriction on `==`. Declared type becomes
forall a. Fn(a, a) -> Bool; codegen monomorphises and dispatches:
Int → icmp eq i64
Bool → icmp eq i1
Str → call @strcmp + icmp eq i32 0
Unit → constant true (operands still emitted for side effects)
ADT / Fn / other → CodegenError::Internal
This unblocks 16c's build_eq for non-Int lit patterns. == joins
__unreachable__ as the second polymorphic builtin (same Forall
machinery).
- check/builtins.rs: == registered as Forall(a, Fn(a, a) -> Bool).
- codegen: lower_eq dispatch table; @strcmp declared in IR header
alongside @printf/@GC_malloc/@puts.
- examples/eq_demo.{ailx,ail.json}: covers all four supported
scalars including a Str-lit-pattern match.
- IR snapshots refreshed: only +declare i32 @strcmp(ptr, ptr) in
the header; every define body bit-identical.
- e2e + check + codegen tests: 124 → 133 (+9, of which +1 is the
e2e fixture and the rest exercise the new dispatch / typecheck
surface).
Other comparison ops (<, <=, >, >=, !=) remain Int-only — out of
scope for this iter.

Decision 9 ships. Through Iter 14e every ADT box, lambda env, and
closure pair was leaked. This iter substitutes GC_malloc for malloc
in all four IR allocation sites and links -lgc. No language change,
no AST change, no schema change.
Diff: 5 files modified, ~30 LOC net.
- codegen/lib.rs: 4 substitutions @malloc -> @GC_malloc.
- ail/main.rs: .arg("-lgc") in the clang invocation.
- 5 IR snapshot files: mechanical s/@malloc/@GC_malloc/, 9
occurrences. IR is bit-identical to pre-14f modulo this
substitution — exactly Decision 9's promise.
- e2e.rs: new test gc_handles_recursive_list_construction.
- examples/gc_stress.{ailx,ail.json}: new fixture, builds a 50-
element list via recursive Cons, sums it (1275).
Hash invariance verified: every existing fixture def hash
unchanged (codegen and link line are downstream of canonical
bytes; AST didn't move).
Tests 79 -> 80, all green. Existing 79 byte-identical stdout.
gc_stress -> 1275. list_map_poly -> 2/3/4 unchanged. sort
sorted-list unchanged. cargo doc 0 warnings.
GC notes (pertinent to future work):
- GC_INIT() not needed on Arch libgc 1.5.6 (auto-init via
__attribute__((constructor))).
- No conservative-scan over-retention observed.
- -lgc alone sufficient for link (pthread/dl transitive).
Pattern-shape note from gc_stress fixture writing: the post-14d
"if-then-else" replacement is `(match (app == n 0) (case
(pat-lit true) ...) (case (pat-wild) ...))`. Three lines for
what `if` used to do in one, but uniform with the language.
Worth flagging for the stdlib brief.
Language is feature-complete enough for stdlib. The three
blockers identified at the 14b boundary (redundancy 14d, tail
calls 14e, GC 14f) are all done. Plan 15a: first stdlib module
std_list.ailx with length/append/reverse/map/filter/fold_left/
fold_right/head/tail/is_empty.

Every fn-value is now a `ptr` to a closure pair `{ ptr thunk, ptr env }`,
not a raw fn-pointer. Top-level fns get an auto-generated adapter
`@ail_<m>_<f>_adapter(ptr %_env, params...)` that ignores env and
forwards to the real fn, plus a static closure constant
`@ail_<m>_<f>_clos = { @adapter, null }`. References to a fn as a
value return the closure-pair address.
Indirect calls now GEP the thunk + env slots, load both, and call
`thunk(env, args...)`. Direct calls to statically-known callees stay
on the original fast path (no adapter).
This is the ABI groundwork for Iter 8b lambdas: a captured-env closure
will reuse the same value shape, just with a non-null env produced by
malloc.
Tests: 48 still green. IR snapshots refreshed (every fn now carries an
adapter + static closure pair). Iter 7's hof.ail.json prints 42
unchanged — `apply(inc, 41)` now hands `@ail_hof_inc_clos` to apply,
which unpacks and indirect-calls as designed.

Finishes the project-wide English convention:
- CLAUDE.md (the user opted in to translate it too).
- examples/hello.ail.json: "Hallo, AILang." -> "Hello, AILang.".
- E2E test assertion and IR snapshot for hello regenerated to match.
- DESIGN.md "Project language: English" section: the previous
CLAUDE.md exception is dropped.
After this commit, no German remains in any committed file
(grep -P '[äöüÄÖÜß]' is empty across .rs / .md / .json / .ll).
Verified: cargo test --workspace passes (44/44).

Symbol-Mangling-Schema einheitlich auf @ail_<modul>_<def> umgestellt
(auch für Single-Modul-Programme), String-Globals als
@.str_<modul>_<idx>. main bleibt LLVM-/C-ABI-Eintrittspunkt und ist
ein Trampoline auf @ail_<entry>_main. lower_workspace emittiert eine
einzige .ll für den ganzen Workspace, alphabetisch nach Modulname,
Cross-Module-Calls über Import-Map aufgelöst. ail build / ail emit-ir
laufen jetzt durch den Workspace-Pfad. IR-Snapshots regeneriert,
neuer ws_main-Snapshot. E2E-Test workspace_build_runs_imported_fn
prüft, dass das Binary die importierte Funktion korrekt aufruft.
Schuld #19 (source_filename) durch einheitliches <entry>.ail-Schema
geschlossen.
Vier Snapshots in crates/ail/tests/snapshots/ (sum, max3, hello, list)
sichern den erzeugten LLVM-IR. Test-Helper normalisiert target triple
und trailing whitespace, sonst byte-für-byte-Vergleich. Update via
UPDATE_SNAPSHOTS=1 cargo test ir_snapshot_. Mismatch erzeugt eine
.actual-Datei mit dem aktuellen Output für Diff-Inspektion.
