I'm adding this patch which changes the "!!" double exclamation marks in lib/irb.rb to use single exclamation marks "!", I think using single exclamation marks are more formal for outputs and Ruby itself.
The patch in question was patched from: http://github.com/ruby/ruby -- Please let me know if you want me to patch from SVN trunk instead.

Although your claim is reasonable, we don't want to introduce any
incompatibility right now. So we will merge the patch on trunk, for
sometime in the future.

This issue was solved with changeset r28363.
Diego, thank you for reporting this issue.
Your contribution to Ruby is greatly appreciated.
May Ruby be with you.

Certain. :-) It's been merged into trunk now, so the next release branched from trunk will have your patch applied. In addition, people who run bleeding-edge Ruby, i.e. build from trunk themselves, already have your patch. :-)
