This is by design. We don't support enumerating objects that are not modules. A string instance is not a module. Why do you need to enumerate all allocated strings?

This problem makes it impossible to run each_object on Numeric as well (and I guess more types that are mapped directly to CLR types). Should I create a bug? Thanks!
