I���ve run into a very strange bug with refinements. Let me show you:

~~~ruby
module Ref
  refine String do
    def to_regexp
    end
  end
end

Regexp.try_convert('foo')
# or Regexp.union('foo', 'bar')
~~~

~~~
bug.rb:8:in `try_convert': undefined method `to_regexp' for "foo":String (NoMethodError)
	from test.rb:8:in `<main>'
~~~

Note that the refinement is not used (_using_), only declared, and yet it has affected behaviour of the refined class! This problem occurs only when the method is named `to_string`. It seems that there���s some serious scoping issue with refinements.

I���ve reproduced this issue on MRI 2.2.2p95, 2.1.5p273, and 2.0.0p598.
