People on Ruby-Doc tell me this sort of thing should go to 
ruby-core, so here it is.  Thank you.

Subject: small patch for drb/drb.rb.

While trying to understand drb more deeply I created this patch
This was shortly after a cvs update -d.  I'm not sure why the 
timestamp of the original is so new. Maybe I need another option
to cvs or cvs update.  Anyway, hope it helps.

        Hugh
