String#slice! can't handle Float and non-standard numerics as arguments
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JRUBY-1745
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-1745
             Project: JRuby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core Classes/Modules
    Affects Versions: JRuby 1.x
         Environment: Latest JRuby 1.1b1 from trunk
            Reporter: Vladimir Sizikov
         Attachments: string-slice-float.patch

Consider the following:

{noformat}
# testcase 1
puts "hello".slice!(0.5, 2.5)

# testcase 2
obj = Object.new
def obj.to_int() 2 end
puts "hello".slice!(obj, obj)
{noformat}

MRI, Rubinius return:
he
ll

JRuby returns:
1) first testcase ==> can't convert Float into String (TypeError)
2) second testcase ==>  can't convert #<Class:01x17a4989> into String 
(TypeError)

This also leads to one rubinius spec failure for string.

The proposed patch fixes the problem, and the spec failure.
