distance_of_time_in_words should work with DateTime as argument
due to this bug: https://rails.lighthouseapp.com/projects/8994/tickets/1713-datetime...
since the rationale is in fraction of days and not in seconds!
simple solution attached.

I don't see the problem on
distance_of_time_in_words
. Can you add a test in your patch to show it? -

i think it is clear, that if the calculation unit changes it will not work as expected. Time is in seconds, DateTime in days.
if DateTime.to_time does not return a time result you get unexpected behaviour.
thus, if #1713 is a wontfix you get inconsistent behavior until you make sure the calculation unit is as expected.

applying this patch causes 3 test failures in actionpack master. Can you fix the patch to include a failing test case without your change and fixes to remedy the test failures?
