The loop from internedString to host and back to guest crashes the constant handling in the constant pool. I think, it should be sufficient to just hand over the internedString to SPouT and add it to the pool. String equals has not gracefully handled comparison with null in all cases.
This PR is recommended as replacement to #2. I personally prefer the loop over the underlying VM wherever possible instead of faithfully modeling the string library behavior in the substitution methods.
