=begin

1.9.1 patch level 378

irb(main):005:0> [1,2,3].to_s
=> "[1, 2, 3]"

1.8.7 patch level 248

irb(main):001:0> [1,2,3].to_s
=> "123"

I personally prefer the behavior that 1.8.7 has, but it'd be nice if 18 and 19 behaved the same way :-)

It's intended. 1.8 should be left unchanged for backward compatibility.
