    Hi,

one thing I came across when testing a project on Ruby 1.9.0-1:

Module#constants now returns an Array of Symbols instead of an Array  
of Strings.

Although the documentation for the Module class in trunk mentions the  
new form
( mod.constants => [:One, :Two]) (not in 1.9.0-1, though), the  
documentation for Module#constants
still uses the old form.

So, without further ado, here's my first patch to core .

Greetings
Florian Gilcher

Indeed.  Thank you for the patch.
