[racket] Case with strings: normal behavior?

This is not-quite-intuitive behavior. The `case' form is based on
`eqv?' instead of `equal?', and the first example works because string
literals are interned, while the result of `string-append' is not.

Should we change `case' to use `equal?' instead of `eqv?'? I can't
think of a good reason to stick with `eqv?'.
