Regexp#inspect doesn't match MRI's output
Reported by Ezra Zygmuntowicz | February 4th, 2008 @ 12:40 AM | in 1.0 preview
In MRI:
>> Regexp.new("/fo/foo/")
=> /\/fo\/foo\//
IN rbx:
irb(main):004:0> Regexp.new("/fo/foo/")
=> //fo/foo//
I played around some trying to fix this issue but I broke the inspect_regexp_spec.rb trying.
This is the last hurdle to running merb-core on rubinius.

Weird. in MRI:
irb(main):001:0> Regexp.new("\/") == /\// => false irb(main):002:0> Regexp.new("\/").inspect == /\//.inspect => true -

Both MRI and Rubinius store the same sources but reverse-escaping is not done on #inspect in rubinius.
irb(main):008:0> Regexp.new("\/").source => "/" irb(main):009:0> /\//.source => "\\/"in Rubinius:
