  # The order of iteration over hashes in Ruby 1.8 is undefined. For example, you do not know the

  # implements a hash that preserves insertion order, as in Ruby 1.9:
  #
  #   oh = ActiveSupport::OrderedHash.new
  #   oh[:a] = 1
  #   oh[:b] = 2
  #   oh.keys # => [:a, :b], this order is guaranteed
  #
  # <tt>ActiveSupport::OrderedHash</tt> is namespaced to prevent conflicts with other implementations.
