• Status: Closed

=begin
The attached patch fixes a problem that occurs when the argument of String#partition needs to be converted using :to_str.

E.g:

class C
def to_str
"foo"
end
end
p "foo-bar".partition(C.new)

Before patch:
["", #<C:0x2c62a8>, "foo-bar"]

After patch:
["", "foo", "-bar"]

RubySpecs has been updated. Without the version guard, it crashes Ruby.
