I'm looking for a way to handle integer ordinalization in Ruby/Rails, ie. "st", "nd", "rd", and "th" suffixes to integers. Ruby on Rails used to extend FixNum with an "ordinalize" method, but that functionality seems to have been deprecated in version 3.

I am currently just using the source for the old Rails method, which is fine... but this seems like functionality that most scripting languages / web frameworks would have built in, and I feel like the folks behind Rails must have had a reason for deprecating the functionality (perhaps it is now available in Ruby proper?).

Please advise!
