rspec users - Apr 2011 - Metadata raises CompatibilityError when I try to inspect it

Hi.

When I try to inspect example metadata, for some reason it raises the
encoding compatibility exception.

~~~
describe RSpec::Core::Metadata do
  describe ''#inspect'' do
    it ''raises Encoding::CompatibilityError'' do
      expect {
        example.metadata.inspect
      }.to raise_error(Encoding::CompatibilityError)
    end
  end

  describe ''#to_s'' do
    it ''raises Encoding::CompatibilityError'' do
      expect {
        example.metadata.to_s
      }.to raise_error(Encoding::CompatibilityError)
    end
  end
end
~~~

~~~
$ rspec metadata_spec.rb
..

Finished in 0.00128 seconds
2 examples, 0 failures
~~~

It raises nothing if I use the `$ ruby ...` instead of `$ rspec ...`
command.

What is the reason of this bug? How can I fix it?

Thanks.

Debian GNU/Linux 6.0.1;
Ruby 1.9.2p0;
RSpec 2.5.1.

Hello, I think this might be a bug in your Ruby 1.9.2 patch version.
I''m
using 1.9.2-p180 and cannot reproduce this.

I installed Ruby 1.9.2-p180 from the sources. Unfortunatelly, the bug
still exists:

I tackled the problem.

If you use the Unicode characters in the path to a spec directory the
bug appears. If not to use them, all goes without any problems.

So, using the path `/home/username/??????????/ruby/my_application/
spec` will raise the exception, but `/home/username/development/ruby/
my_application/spec` will not.
