Thanks, that fixes the first problem.  However, irb still exits if
you make a syntax error.  For instance:

irb(main):001:0> require 'noSuchFile'
(irb):1:in `require': No such file to load -- noSuchFile (LoadError)
        from (irb):1:in `irb_binding'
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.5/irb/workspace-binding.rb:55:in `irb_binding'
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/1.5/irb/workspace-binding.rb:55

Since I am a lousy typist, this presents a bit of a problem! (It worked 
fine in 1.4.x, BTW).

Thanks...
