Subject: [ruby-core:70140] [Ruby trunk - Bug #9244] unexpected behaviour of 'require' when $LOAD_PATH gets changed

Issue #9244 has been updated by Jean Boussier.

ruby -v changed from 1.9.3p484, 2.0.0p353, 2.1.2 to 1.9.3p484, 2.0.0p353, 2.1.2 2.1.6p336 2.2.1p85

~~~
$ ruby -v
ruby 2.1.6p336 (2015-04-13 revision 50298) [x86_64-darwin14.0]
$ cat test.rb 
 $LOAD_PATH.unshift File.join(Dir.pwd, 'a')
 require 'test.rb'
 $LOAD_PATH.unshift File.join(Dir.pwd, 'b')
 require 'test.rb'

$ ruby test.rb 
a
~~~

It's still a problem in 2.1.6, and 2.2.1 as well

Bug #9244: unexpected behaviour of 'require' when $LOAD_PATH gets changed
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/9244#change-53572

* Author: Sylvain Joyeux
* Status: Feedback
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: 
* ruby -v: 1.9.3p484, 2.0.0p353, 2.1.2 2.1.6p336 2.2.1p85
* Backport: 1.9.3: UNKNOWN, 2.0.0: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
For the purpose of reproducing the error, let's assume that I have two folders ```a``` and ```b``` which both contain a file ```test.rb```

In the following script, ```b/test.rb``` will NOT get loaded:

```
 $LOAD_PATH.unshift File.join(Dir.pwd, 'a')
 require 'test.rb'
 $LOAD_PATH.unshift File.join(Dir.pwd, 'b')
 require 'test.rb'
```

I would have expected this behaviour before, when required files were not registered through their absolute paths in $LOADED_FEATURES. Right now, I find it confusing.
