reason it is implemented by delegating to File (by inheriting from DelegateClass(File)) rather than by inheriting from it, does not actually look like a File, and hence does not look like an IO (in that it does not respond to kind_of? IO calls). In ruby 1.8.5 this doesn't matter as REXML checks that the source it has been given responds to the methods it wants (using respond_to? which is handled properly by DelegateClass) but in 1.8.4 which we are running on rails2 REXML uses kind_of? to see if the source is one it can use.
