+ *  Document-module: Warning
+ *
+ *  The Warning module contains a single method named #warn, and the
+ *  module extends itself, making Warning.warn available.
+ *  Warning.warn is called for all warnings issued by ruby.
+ *  By default, warnings are printed to $stderr.
+ *
+ *  By overriding Warning.warn, you can change how warnings are
+ *  handled by ruby, either filtering some warnings, and/or outputing
+ *  warnings somewhere other than $stderr.  When Warning.warn is
+ *  overridden, super can be called to get the default behavior of
+ *  printing the warning to $stderr.
