 Someone can explain me what is the problem ? Personnaly I've seen only a
 question 

    When do a class exist ?

 You have 3 possibilities

   1) before a node CLASS
   2) after a node CLASS
   3) at any moment, when ruby has some free time

 Actually ruby make 2)

 The patch make 3) : when ruby has some free time it create a classpath, it
 wait a little and when it has another free time it create the constant :-)

 If I've a classpath path, I expect to retrieve the constant with this
 classpath. If I've a constant, I expect to retrieve the classpath.

 For me, this patch make classid useless but it's not remove it.
