[pypy-issue] [issue866] [PATCH] join is slow about 2x slower than Python

fijal told me why this won't work and I wondered about it as I worked on it. We 
pretty much have to use str_w and I can't just assert that the object is of type 
W_StringObject because the object could be some other string derivative. I guess I 
need to speed up str_w. I'll keep this open for a few days because hopefully I'll 
have a new patch.
