We benchmarked it and the code generated by the current perl_keyword.pl was the fastest. If you (or anyone else) are (is) curious, it would be interesting to see what effect tweaking Devel::Tokenizer::C to use strEQ and then regenerating gives.
No, I believe you that it is faster (if only because it saves a function call and all of the associated thrashing that can happen). It just looked weird; now that I know that it is 100% machine generated, I don't have any problem with it as it stands.
