Ruby's sum method should be mostly compatible but it is impossible to be perfectly compatible with all of them. * Fixnum and Bignum are unified into Integer [Feature #12005] Fixnum class and Bignum class is removed. Integer class is changed from abstract class to concrete class. For example, 0 is an instance of Integer: 0.class returns Integer. The constants Fixnum and Bignum is bound to Integer. So obj.kind_of?(Fixnum) works as obj.kind_of?(Integer). At C-level, Fixnum object and Bignum object should be distinguished by FIXNUM_P(obj) and RB_TYPE_P(obj, T_BIGNUM). RUBY_INTEGER_UNIFICATION can be used to detect this feature at C-level. 0.class == Integer can be used to detect this feature at Ruby-level.

They can cause compilation failure. * String/Symbol#upcase/downcase/swapcase/capitalize(!) now work for all of Unicode, not only for ASCII. [Feature #10085] No change is needed if the data is in ASCII anyway or if the limitation to ASCII was only tolerated while waiting for a more extensive implementation. A change (using the :ascii option) is needed in cases where Unicode data is processed, but the operation has to be limited to ASCII only. A good example of this are internationalized domain names. * TRUE / FALSE / NIL These constants are now obsoleted.

    https://github.com/ruby/tk is the new upstream.

=== Supported platform changes

* FreeBSD < 4 is no longer supported

=== Implementation improvements

* In some condition, `[x, y].max` and `[x, y].min` are optimized
  so that a temporal array is not created.  The concrete condition is
