Subject: [ruby-core:66333] [ruby-trunk - Bug #10485] NoMethodError "undefined method `initialize_copy'" when trying to execute Queue#dup

Issue #10485 has been updated by Recursive Madman.


> Not all methods in super classes always work on all subclasses.

If a method that works on a superclass doesn't work on a subclass, I would expect the subclass to at least mark it as `private` and definitely not segfault.
