> Spotted a question on stackoverflow about removing a metaclass method
> The page here
> http://groovy.codehaus.org/JN3525-MetaClasses
> Says you should be able to do it by setting it to null, but we get this:
> {code}
> String.metaClass.foo = { "${delegate}foo" }
> assert 'kung'.foo() == 'kungfoo'
> String.metaClass.foo = null
> assert 'woo'.foo() == 'woofoo'
> {code}
> That last assert should fail (according to the docs), but it passes
> Is this a documentation issue?
