I propose to document YAML as always being (=) Psych, and give a tip about the syck gem which might be used with the Syck constant (but the YAML constant is always Psych). Do we need to keep Psych::EngineManager? I guess for compatibility it is safer? May I document it as deprecated so it might removed in a future version? Related to #6163. -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
