[ruby-dev:21883] right hand Regexp

  Koji Arai proposed a method Object#=~ so that we can write
  a Regexp object on the right hand as follows.

    obj =~ /foo/

  In his opinion, if 'obj' respond to 'to_str', the above code
  has the same meaning as the following one.

    obj.to_str =~ /foo/ 

  Matz refused the proposal, since he thought that 'to_str' should
  be used to convert a parameter passed to a method and we should
  prepare an object with all methods of String if we want to
  consider it a String object.
  He then proposed a module which provides an object with a set of
  methods of String if the object has to_str.

[ruby-dev:21911] how to call ruby from multiple native threads

  Shugo Maeda posted a part of mod_ruby sources to show how to
  use functions of ruby from multiple native threads.
  In his implementation, he used a queue by which function calls
  from each native thread ware forwarded to a native thread for ruby.

[ruby-dev:21925] CGI#read_multipart raises NoMethodError

  Akira Yamada posted something like a bug of cgi.rb. In this talk,
  Matz wrote two issues about cgi.rb which he heard in Ruby Conference.

  - It is hard to know if a received data format is multipart.
    * One solution is to wrap it with something which behaves like String.

  - It is hard to know if a received data is a kind of StringIO or a Tempfile.
    * One proposal is to convert a StringIO object to a Tempfile object
      when calling the 'local_path' method.
