Wait...why would Symbol < String have removed the need of HWIA? It's  
more about
what #hash returns.

This is interesting. Symbols and Strings seem to have the same hash  
values now:

irb(main):001:0> {test:5}['test']
=> 5

Didn't know that. It means you don't need HWIA in Ruby 1.9, even  
without String < Symbol.
