#flatten ⇒ Object

tmp_verb = $VERBOSE $VERBOSE = nil WARNING! Array#flatten is redefined so that it calls the is_a? method (instead of doing it internally as defined in the C code). This allows Arrayclass derived objects to resist flattening by declaring that they are not Arrays. This may be slightly slower than the original, but in all other respects should be the same (i.e., will flatten array derived classes).
