I know, I'd like to undo that change (I can make a PR), except for the parts which are significantly faster in C (I think only `Pathname#<=>` / `path_cmp`).
Then, we could share more of Pathname between Ruby implementations, and avoid maintaining both a Ruby and C version.
There is a copy in [TruffleRuby](https://github.com/oracle/truffleruby/blob/5ab35083f1cebd44b05ad5e8706196118184c328/lib/truffle/pathname.rb), in JRuby and in Rubinius right now due to that commit :/
@akr Would that be OK?

pathname is one of most useful utility class of Ruby. I'm happy to use Pathname without require it.

Any thought?
