Apologies -- I didn't fully understand this question until I re-read
#3592.
I agree that we need to apply this patch and will raise some hell
forthwith. In the meantime, the issue is specific to Hash, so can't
you do...
Object.extend(Hash.prototype, {
reject: function() { /* ... */ },
findAll: function() { /* ... */ },
_add: function() { /* ... */ },
_new: function() { /* ... */ }
});
I think this is the best band-aid until this problem gets permanently
fixed.
