We still encountered a gc_sweep in our use of Ruby 1.8 on Linux (v8).

Yes, there are several (Ruby) threads working during this gc_sweep.

When I first read this on Elliots post I thought "so?" You can mispell things anywhere and its going to break stuff. All you're pointing out is that no definite error is going to pop out and say "hey dodo, you made a typo!". Well, guess what? That kind of bug happens all the time, especially in a dynamic language like Ruby. So I think that's a very very small point, and thus doesn't invalidate less code argument. Besides what do you do if no block is assigned?...more code. Now what would really be intersting is a callback method: no_responer. When respond_to? returns false a detour is made to a no_responder callback method, if defined. With appropriate args this could take care of the problem in one fell swoop. My my... callbacks and duck typing? What will we think of next? :) -t0
