I always use RUBYOPT=-w and here is one warning I see:

/usr/lib/ruby/1.9.1/irb/context.rb:166: warning: method redefined; discarding old irb_name

Thanks for your consideration.

Hello,

I still find the same warning mentioned in this report (and some new ones):

ruby -w -r 'irb' -ve 'p :hello'

Hi,

For my part, I got a warning about "save_history=", launching irb with RUBYOPT='-w'.
It would be nice to make this warning disappear, and I would be interested how you would deal with it.

This happen with both 1.9.2 and 1.8.7 (and I suppose all versions then)
/lib/ruby/1.9.1/irb/ext/save-history.rb:29: warning: method redefined; discarding old save_history=
/lib/ruby/1.9.1/irb/extend-command.rb:211: warning: previous definition of save_history= was here

Regards,
B.D.
