Bug #12477
closedRegexp with x modifier does not ignore space in character class

Description
The x modifier should cause all non-escaped spaces to be ignored in a regexp, right?
But consider that
/ [a] /x =~ " " #=> nil
/ [ ] /x =~ " " #=> 0
So spaces inside a character class are always literal, regardless of the x modifier. This has got to be a bug right?

My apologies. Looks like this is normal. http://www.regular-expressions.info/freespacing.html
