Bug #2955: File.expand_path raises unexpected CompatibilityError

• Status: Closed

=begin
$ ./ruby -Ilib -e "p Encoding.find('filesystem')"
#Encoding:UTF-8
./ruby -Ilib -e "p 'あ'.encoding.ascii_compatible?"
true
$ ./ruby -Ilib -e "p File.expand_path('あ', '/')"
"/あ"

The above is ok but

$ ./ruby -Ilib -e "p File.expand_path('あ', '/'.force_encoding('US-ASCII'))"
-e:1:in expand_path': incompatible character encodings: UTF-8 and US-ASCII (Encoding::CompatibilityError) from -e:1:in '

For me this is unexpected one.
