Comment(by cwdi...@…):
This appears to be related to the fact that Symbol inherits from NSString,
which is immutable. A simple reduced case is:
{{{
class Symbol
def eq
@foo = 3
end
end
:zoo.eq
}}}
At this point, the object is changed, which appears not to be desirable in
the context of immutability, yet Ruby 1.9 allows it and many Ruby idioms
take advantage of it (e.g., DataMapper).
