Subject: Re: [RCR] subclasses of string as hash keys

Hi,

In message "[RCR] subclasses of string as hash keys"

|Current behaviour in Ruby is irritating.

|example:
|
|class A < String; end

|hash = {}
|
|hash[ A.new('x') ] = nil
|
|p hash.keys.first.class
|
|=> String

It's a bug.  It should be A.  Thank you.
