Subject: [PATCH] strcmp: Remove unnecessary check for *r
If *l == *r && *l, then by transitivity, *r.
---
I noticed while looking at getopt_long that strcmp has a redundant check for
*r. I know the compiler will almost certainly optimize this out anyway, but I
still think it would be a good change to make.
