Wow, sorry for the massive breakage!

The bug is that the way I wrote the DFG's optimizations of statements of the form:

if (foo) blah

!foo

I forgot that the empty string evaluates to false in these contexts, and instead wrote the optimization to assume that if I have a string then it's always true.

The fix is to change the optimization to exclude strings from the object-isn't-false optimization.
