Bug #16908

Strange behaviour of Hash#shift when used with `default_proc`.

Description

I don't have any strong opinion about this, but I observed the following behaviour which I thought was confusing. Maybe it's okay, or maybe we should change it to be more consistent.

hash = Hash.new{|k,v| k[v] = 0}

hash.shift # => 0
hash.shift # => [nil, 0]

My feeling was, both cases should return [nil, 0].
