  [Ruby 1.9 - Bug #5416]

• ruby -v changed from 1.9.2p290 to -

I merged 1 and 2, merged a small part of 3 (due to #5403) and hand-merged 4 to keep the references to needing to require 'time'.

Historically users have been confused by reading about a method on Time but having it not work. A future version of rdoc may allow this to be removed if it shows the location of these methods.
