Subject: [PATCH] Silly bug in 1.8's YAML

Hi,
Ruby 1.8's YAML will use the "new" method to instantiate objects, but it
should use "allocate" instead. Otherwise, there might be trouble with
new/initialize that take arguments.

This is fixed in Ruby 1.9/Syck CVS, but I think it should go in 1.8,
too.

Regards,
Tilman
