Summary: RSpec hangs when used with QtRuby

Initial Comment:
Creating mocks/stubs for a method called 'type' and requiring (even if not actually using) QtRuby makes spec (or rake, when using the Spec task) hang indefinitly. This doesn't happen when mocking any other method or when using a mocking framework different from RSpec's default framework (at least, it works using flexmock).

This is the smallest piece of code which causes the problem:

require 'Qt4'

describe 'something' do

  it 'should work passing the :type parameter' do
    m = mock('test')
    m.should_receive(:type)
  end

end

The attached file contains the backtrace obtained running spec -b on the file prova.rb containing the above code (obtained after using Ctrl+C to stop spec after it hangs).

System description:

gentoo linux (kernel 2.6.21-gentoo-r3)
ruby: ruby 1.8.6 (2007-06-07 patchlevel 36)
rspec: RSpec-1.0.8 (r2338) (gem) (RSpec 1.0.5 didn't cause this problem)
Qt: 4.3.1 open source or Qt 3.3.8 (the problem happens with both qt3 and qt4)
QtRuby: 1.4.9 (for Qt4) and Korundum 3.5.5 (for KDE/Qt3)
