Subject: Output UTF-16LE BOM to file - 1.9

ruby 1.9.1p0 (2009-01-30 revision 21907) [i386-mswin32]

With this code:

File.open('zz.txt', 'w:UTF-16LE') do |f|
  f.print "Hello Uni-world"
end

...I get no BOM

guts = File.read('zz.txt')
puts guts.bytes.to_a.inspect

#=> [72, 0, 101, 0, 108, 0, 108, 0, 111, 0, 32, 0,...

...and my brain can't concoct a way to insert it myself, though I know
it must be simple...
