ruby2c and dynamic typing

How does ruby2c handle or plan to handle ruby's dynamic types? I've
been reading what little is a available including bits on rubyinline on
zenspider.com, but can't seem to find much on how it plans to handle
dynamic types.

We won't, not in the subset we will be translating. If it doesn't fit
into C's type layer, we won't be handling it.

Thanks, with trying to work, changing jobs, study and everything else
it's hard to keep up with things happening in the ruby world and I tend
to missed things, hence the occasional stupid question.

not stupid at all, and something we need to work on in our doco. Thank
you for pointing this out. I'll add it to my todo list.
