04:40 PM Ruby Feature #2190: FileUtils::chmod - allow symbolic mode

=begin
+1 Would like to see this it's way to the core, except that `current_file_mode` function doesn't seem to be really used anyway and can be removed:

+ def symbolic_modes_to_i(modes, path)

04:47 PM Ruby Bug #3033: backtrace of SystemStackError disappeared

=begin
I think that returning String instead of an Array as Exception#backtrace
here http://github.com/shyouhei/ruby/blob/trunk/eval.c#L382
is breaking other code expectation about backtrace being enumerable.

As illustrated below 1.8 reported the name of function called with wrong number of arguments, while 1.9 doesn't

12:28 AM Ruby Feature #1482: Kernel.exec doesn't respect COMSPEC environment variable on Windows

Documentation for exec method says:
* The standard shell means always `"/bin/sh"` on Unix-like systems,
* `ENV["RUBYSHELL"]` or `ENV["COMSPEC"]` on Windows NT series, and

04:45 PM Ruby Feature #1482 (Rejected): Kernel.exec doesn't respect COMSPEC environment variable on Windows

Here is pretty convoluted test case:
```ruby
puts ENV["COMSPEC"] # => "C:\WINDOWS\system32\mycmd.exe"
File.open("1.bat", "w") { |f| f.write("time") } # create test batch file with command which waits for user input
