[PATCH] possible Float#to_s bug
Reported by Jeremy Roach | December 23rd, 2007 @ 03:03 AM | in 1.0 preview
1.87687113714737e-40.to_s == "1.87687113714737e-40"
This evaluates to true in mri, but false in rubinius. Rubinius appears to strip the trailing zero from the string.
ruby 1.8.6 (2007-03-13 patchlevel 0) [i686-linux]
rubinius 0.8.0 (ruby 1.8.6 compatible) (eea90994f) (12/22/2007) [i686-pc-linux-gnu]

The 'e' is getting sucked into \1 in the regexp. The attached patch seems to fix the problem, for me.
