And also,  $-I == $LOAD_PATH

The question still remains, Why is $LOAD_PATH defined in
http://www.ruby-lang.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/ruby/eval.c?rev=1.649

while $LOADED_FEATURES is defined in 
http://www.ruby-lang.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/ruby/lib/English.rb?rev=1.4

I was expecting to find all special Perl-like Ruby vars in English.rb.

Just curious.
