Terminal output

IE8 has a feature that allows changing the display of the current page to match
IE7 or quirks mode, accessible from the developer tools window. This works
once, but the window becomes unresponsive afterward. That didn't happen in
1.3.20:

oleaut32: Reallocate in BSTR_UserUnmarshal to avoid changing the pointer if
the string didn't change.

Reverting the patch fixed the problem. Steps to reproduce:

1. winetricks ie8
2. Start IE8 and press F12
3. After the developer tools window appears, press Alt+7

It should reload the current page's HTML source, but instead it just shows
"loading..." and the window cannot be interacted with any further.
