Corruption in Syck-Psych round trips when the document contains "base 60" strings

[tenderlove]

Does this happen with the Psych gem? When I use psych to dump that hash, the values are quoted:

irb(main):002:0> require 'yaml'
=> true
irb(main):003:0> YAML.load '--- 11:22:33'
=> 40953
irb(main):004:0> YAML::ENGINE.yamler
=> "psych"
irb(main):005:0> YAML.dump '11:22:33'
=> "--- '11:22:33'\n"
irb(main):006:0> YAML.dump 'a' => '11:22:33'
=> "---\na: '11:22:33'\n"
irb(main):007:0> YAML.load YAML.dump '11:22:33'
=> "11:22:33"
irb(main):008:0>

Hmmm. I think that /(\d\d:)+\d\d/ may have been an over-broad assumption on my part.

ruby-1.9.2-p290 :001 > require 'psych'
 => true 
ruby-1.9.2-p290 :002 > Psych.dump('11:22:33')
 => "--- '11:22:33'\n" 
ruby-1.9.2-p290 :003 > Psych.dump('01:03:05')
 => "--- 01:03:05\n...\n" 
ruby-1.9.2-p290 :004 > Psych.dump('a' => '01:03:05')
 => "---\na: 01:03:05\n"

11:22:33 is quoted, but 01:03:05 is not.

Does this happen with the Psych gem?

Apologies, I'm not sure how to test this. I installed the Psych gem but, according to $LOADED_FEATURES, the version being used is still the one under lib/ruby.

Apologies, I'm not sure how to test this.

Figured it out two seconds later.

ruby-1.9.2-p290 :001 > $LOADED_FEATURES.grep /psych/
 => [] 
ruby-1.9.2-p290 :002 > gem 'psych'
 => true 
ruby-1.9.2-p290 :003 > require 'psych'
 => true 
ruby-1.9.2-p290 :004 > $LOADED_FEATURES.grep /psych/
# indicates that the gem version is being used
ruby-1.9.2-p290 :005 > Psych.dump('a' => '01:03:05')
 => "---\na: 01:03:05\n" 

So, version 1.2.0 of the gem has the same issue.
