Subject: [ruby-talk:13405] strange behavior under mod_ruby


The following script:

	puts "MOD_RUBY<P>" if defined? MOD_RUBY
	before = String.methods.sort
	class String
	end
	after = String.methods.sort
	if before != after
	  raise "String is now different..."
	end

	require "cgi"

	before = CGI.methods.sort
	class CGI
	end
	after = CGI.methods.sort
	if before != after
	  puts "CGI is now different..."
	  diff = before - after 
	  puts diff
	end

Works fine (no output) if run from the command line.  But, run in the
mod_ruby context, I get:

	MOD_RUBY

	CGI is now different... escape escapeElement escapeHTML parse
	pretty rfc1123_date unescape unescapeElement unescapeHTML

I'm very confused.  How is it that I'm er... "losing" all these
methods?
