Subject: [ruby-core:58625] [ruby-trunk - Feature #8998] string keys for hash	literals should use fstrings


Issue #8998 has been updated by tmm1 (Aman Gupta).


>+	if (!OBJ_FROZEN(str))
>+	    *key = rb_fstring(str);

Do you know why the OBJ_FROZEN check is required here?

I tried to investigate and it appears this function is sometimes invoked with symbols.

Feature #8998: string keys for hash literals should use fstrings

While we're introducing optimizations from frozen strings,
string keys inside hashes should be frozen at the compiler level
to prevent duplication.

	a = { "ABC" => :t }
	b = { "ABC" => :t }

	# the following ought to print true
	p(a.keys[0].object_id == b.keys[0].object_id)

This should introduce no incompatibilities and be transparent to users of
older rubies.
