TRIAGED 2026-08-14 by Track T — consolidated into a Track A bug
Reproduced at HEAD with a rebuilt compiler: FAIL grown ascii string stays ascii.
Cause is 9ffbba0bd perf(A): append in place for \s := s + x`, which is literally the construct the failing assertion exercises — and the test's own comment names the hazard ("growth through the inline resize path must not lose or invent the flag"). Filed as [[bug-a-in-place-append-loses-the-ascii-kind-flag-on-growth]] (Track A, p75, urgent — it is in pin v299, so every $(PXX_STABLE)` lane has it).
- 2026-08-14 — resolved, commit 513de4f46.
