Oddly enough, this:

c = 0
loop { c += 1; puts "two_symbols_sitting_in_a_tree_#{c}".to_sym }
was a total crasher on 1.8.5 but works on 1.8.6 p110. Don't have time  
to build 1.8.5. again and check, unfortunately.

But as people say that symbol table is not even GCed I would avoid  
converting people's input into symbols anyway.
