I was just playing with the new ooRexx5.0.0 Beta and noticed a change in 
behavior.  In earlier releases, the code

trio = .array~of(1,2,3); say trio

produced "an Array".  However, in 5.0.0, it produces 3 lines containing 
1, 2 and 3 respectively, the same as

say trio~makeString.

Reading the documentation it appears the new behavior is the correct one 
and the old one was a bug but I didn't find a bug for it in the Changes 
document.  So the questions are 1) was this intentional (fixing an 
incorrect result) and if so, where is it documented, and 2) will this 
change cause old programs to break (quite possibly) and is the risk 
acceptable?
