Subject: Re: Splat, #to_ary and #to_a

Just for posterity, it may be worth pointing what Eero hinted at. If
you add a to_ary method to Range / String in 1.9, then you get the old
behavior for the use cases that show differences (e.g., [*(1..10)] ):

class Range
  def to_ary
    self.inject([]) { |ary, item| ary << item }
  end
end
