Subject: Problems with String#hash

Dear devs,

I am facing a very NASTY problem with String#hash

Here is the same code that I run on 3 different computers:

root@kosh:~ # irb
irb(main):001:0> "User".hash
=> 690465448
irb(main):002:0> VERSION
=> "1.8.2"

C:\Documents and Settings\drak>irb
irb(main):001:0> "User".hash
=> 690465448
irb(main):002:0> VERSION
=> "1.8.4"

http://tryruby.hobix.com/
 Interactive ruby ready.
>> "User".hash
=> 690465448
>> VERSION
=> "1.8"

root@victory:~# irb
irb(main):001:0> "User".hash
=> -1457018200
irb(main):002:0> VERSION
=> "1.8.4"

Please nottice that on the last case I get a different result! Any
idea why this happens?

thanks in advance for any help!

George.
