Subject: Re: uri test failures.  (Re: [ruby-cvs] ruby/lib, ruby/lib/uri: Lovely RDOC patches from mathew (metaATpoboxDOTcom) on URI/* and getoptlong.rb)

One other thing: I did definitely mention the bug fix was included in 
the patches I sent to Ryan Davis... as I wrote in my e-mail to him:

I'm not trying to sneak anything past anyone here, and apologies for 
causing test breakage.
