I'm sorry but I am no longer working on this. When I contacted the
ruby developer group, no one responded regarding the above docstring/
comment issue. Furthermore, they pointed out that there may be
several pre-history contributors, which they don't keep records in
CVS/ChangeLog. Someone else may try again, but it will be a long way
to go.
