These lines at the bottom of the mash gem are causing the issue:
# Converts all of the keys to strings
def stringify_keys!
keys.each{|k|
v = delete(k)
self[k.to_s] = v
v.stringify_keys! if v.is_a?(Hash)
v.each{|p| p.stringify_keys! if p.is_a?(Hash)} if v.is_a?(Array)
}
self
end
This is defined inside class Hash...end inside of the mash
file.....hmmm.....
