Aaah...

Right, but Curl_raw_equal has its capital C because it isn't exported to the
public libcurl API and I don't want it be that either.

What if we turned it the other way around and made sure that the other
functions (curl_strequal and curl_strnequal) in strequal.c don't get the
extern on them when the curl tool uses them? Like if we define some magic
define before curl.h is included.

After all, they are done the "curlx_" way already since I want them removed in
a future.
