Subject: [ruby-core:58255] [ruby-trunk - Bug #8958] Rational#to_d don't	match documentation


Issue #8958 has been updated by marcandre (Marc-Andre Lafortune).


@mrkn  I'm not sure it would make sense to have a default precision here... Is there a default precision anywhere in the BigDecimal library?

Backport: 


The documentation states that Rational#to_d (added by BigDecimal) has an optional parameter to limit the precision.  However, that parameter is not optional as implemented.
