[RDOC] patch for vararg require

ruby-talk
1

I'm doing something funky in my code, where I have a custom #require method on an object and I delegate a #require call on another object to the first one. I.e., something like this:

   def require( *args )
     @object.require( *args )
   end

The delegating call kills rdoc with a "Unknown argument type to require: #<RubyToken::TkMULT:0x403c1c94>".

The attached patch fixes this, causing such constructs to be ignored with a warning (much like dynamic strings).

Thanks for the patch. However, I believe that the latest CVS RDoc's already handle this, issuing a warning for all unknown parameter types.

Cheers
