Description

In Ruby 1.8.7 and latest 1.8.8:

$ cat ohoh.rb 
puts __method__

$ ruby18dev -e "load 'ohoh.rb'"
val (null) id 140734799802560/Users/work/test/ohoh.rb:1:in `to_s': NULL pointer given (ArgumentError)
	from /Users/work/test/ohoh.rb:1:in `puts'
	from /Users/work/test/ohoh.rb:1
	from -e:1:in `load'
	from -e:1


Doing __method__.inspect instead will crash Ruby
