455 tests, 1600 assertions, 0 failures, 0 errors

Wooo!

Here’s some of the changes and notes I made for you:

• Removed some privates, because life is better without privates.
• Added Object#send! stub on 1.8.
• lambda cares about number of arguments now, so add |*a|.
• ENV['FOO'] = nil becomes ENV.delete 'FOO'. This is the most annoying change, since restoring defaults is a pain.
• WEBrick’s response object’s #code alias is gone, use #status
• (i = 0; 5.times do |i| end; i == 4) is false, so use a separate variable like count, and add count = i
• Kernel#require stores the full path to the require’d file now.
• There’s something going on with class variable sharing between a module and its singleton class. See [ruby-core:12200].
• Strings aren’t Array-like anymore, so use things like Kernel#Array instead of String#to_a
• #methods and #instance_variables return arrays of symbols instead of strings now.

Also, the tests run 20-25% faster on 1.9 than 1.8. Look for a beta of RubyGems coming next week!
