Stopped working on ruby 1.9

[jomz]

ruby-feedparser 0.7.0 trips over UTF8/ASCII encoding issues in ruby 1.9.
I tried using feedparser 0.9.3 to fix this, but that version seems to have stopped working altogether..;
FeedParser::Feed::new is supposed to take a string with the content of the feed (according to the tests), but when I try that, I get ArgumentError: wrong number of arguments(1 for 0)...

ruby-feedparser seems abandoned, so I gave up trying to fix this.

I have switched to feed_reader which seems to still work. I did have to require feedzirra in my Gemfile, make sure to specify

gem 'feedzirra', '~> 0.7.1'

Because 0.8.0 is an empty gem that nudges you to use feedjira. I don't have the time atm to update feed_reader into a gem depending on feedjira, but figured this info may help someone..

Thanks Benny, I'll take a look when I get a chance. If/when you have time, I'd be happy to have you make further improvements to this extension.
Would you like me to add you as an author on the gem? Happy to do so.
