So it looks like the bug is in the implementation of "/".  Either it
should drop the class, or it should set the object bit.

The difference in printing between auto-printing and explicit printing
may be worth addressing, but really objects like ratio shouldn't exist,
so it's not surprising that they behave strangely.

  Also happens with *, if LHS is not a scalar:

  > c(1,1)*table(x)
x
A B
2 2
attr(,"class")
[1] "table"

  > 1*table(x)
x
A B
2 2

  - similar with + and -, but not unary + and -.

  Nice to see a bug in arithmetic operators that isn't covered by
everyone screaming "FAQ 7.31!!!"

Yes :-).

I will fix it.
