Jacques Distler 6873fc8026 Upgrade to Rails 2.0.2
Upgraded to Rails 2.0.2, except that we maintain

   vendor/rails/actionpack/lib/action_controller/routing.rb

from Rail 1.2.6 (at least for now), so that Routes don't change. We still
get to enjoy Rails's many new features.

Also fixed a bug in Chunk-handling: disable WikiWord processing in tags (for real this time).

# acts_like_time?. As a result, we can do "x.acts_like?(:time)" and
# "x.acts_like?(:date)" to do duck-type-safe comparisons, since classes that
# we want to act like Time simply need to define an acts_like_time? method.
