http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3587

Code in various places in the system query #isWideString followed by an  
ifTrue:ifFalse:

The Smalltalk way would be to issue a command to the String, which is  
overridden in the wide subclasses.

Attached is a changeset that makes some of these changes.

All Collections and Morphic tests green in Pharo1.2rc1 Latest update: #12320

Igor says we need to check if the VMmaker does not require the primitive to  
be in a certain class. (bytestring)

Else good.
