Thanks for the PR.
You need to untag the spec for this with jt untag spec/ruby/core/io/path_spec.rb.

It makes sense to declare in this PR a #to_path method as well, that is just an alias of #path.

You mean in IO ? File already declares a to_path using alias_method

[andrykonchin]

Yes, I mean in IO. CRuby defines #to_path in the IO class:

f = File.new("a.txt", "w")

f.method(:path).owner
#=> IO
f.method(:to_path).owner
#=> IO

Could you please squash working commits? Removing exception classes might deserve a separate commit.
