Subject: determining whether an object is an immediate?

This is be best I could come up with for determining whether an
object is an immediate (Fixnum, Symbol, false, true, nil,
others?):

begin
  obj.clone
  # clone worked - not an immediate
rescue TypeError
  # clone failed - immediate
end

Anybody have a better way?  If the above is the best, seems
like an Object#immediate? would be nice to have.
