 i isolated this as best i could. the hash.each loop in the weirdness
 method does not exit on return. instead, it jumps to the top of the loop
 and continues to iterate through the hash. replacing the line
                 @map.each do |letters, numbers|
 with
                 @map.keys.each do |letters|
 produces the correct behavior.  Hash.each and Hash.each_key produce
 identical results. Not sure this is a high priority since iterating
 through the Hash.keys array works.


 class A

         def initialize(parent)
                 @map = Hash[ 'a', 1, 'b', 2, 'c', 3, 'd', 4]
                 @parent = parent
         end


         def test
                 @parent.thread_me_back { weirdness }
         end

         def weirdness
                 @map.each do |letters, numbers|  # bug lies here
                         puts 'top of loop'
                         if @parent.aborted?
                                 puts 'leaving...'
                                 return
                         end
                         sleep(1)
                 end
         end
 end


 class B

         def initialize
                 @abort_signal = false
                 @thread = nil
         end

         def run
                 a = A.new(self)
                 a.test
                 sleep(1)
                 @abort_signal = true
                 @thread.join
         end

         def thread_me_back(&block)
                 @thread = Thread.new do
                         yield
                 end
         end

         def aborted?
                 return @abort_signal
         end
 end
