The performance is much better now - but that warning thing is  
interesting.
I think people should be able to decide if they use != or not and  
there should be an option that, when applied, turns out warnings and  
enables 'negative operator expectations'.

One more word on performance: It is possible to see the difference in  
performance of both
versions (with source inspect and without).
But only if you run benchmarks that are exclusivley designed for this  
purpose.
Running the rspec spec suite for both versions doesn't show any  
difference.
