Given binding (e.g. current top level binding) I would expect __dir__ to return the directory I'm in, similarly to how __FILE__ with binding does. Instead it returns nil. I think I have found the solution, but since this is my first modification of Ruby code it might be inaccurate and not work in some cases. I hope it points to the right location though. Please see attached patch along with a testcase showing the problem. I also had to modify another testcase to use realpath when checking __dir__ functionality, please check if it's correct. -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
